Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
From the Publisher Folks said Rosie could fiddle the flowers out of their buds. They said she could fiddle the stones out of the ground. Folks said Rosie O'Grady could outfiddle the devil himself, and that was a dangerous thing to say! Rosie's Fiddle swings with footstomping country cadences and zesty illustrations that bounce with the raucous energy of an old time hoedown. Product Description Rosie's reputation for being able to fiddle the very flowers from their buds and the stones out of the ground causes trouble when it is said that she can outfiddle the devil himself, and a raucous oldtime hoedown ensues. From School Library Journal KindergartenGrade 2. "Prickly as the roses that grew by her door," Rosie lives alone with her chickens and corn, and an old, cracked fiddle she plays on summer evenings on her porch. Her music is so beautiful that the townsfolk hide in the shadows to hear her play, saying that she "could outfiddle the devil himself." When he comes to her door, Rosie accepts his challenge, hoping to win his shiny bright fiddle. The duel is described in lyrical language, complemented by clever, colorful illustrations. However, there is no real twist on this familiar tale other than a female heroine. This simple contest with the devil is not as intriguing as in Harve Zemach's Duffy and the Devil (Farrar, 1973) or Harold Berson's How the Devil Gets His Due (Crown, 1972; o.p.), but it is certainly authentic Americana. A careful eye will enjoy the "Buy Bonds" signs on Rosie's barn and the expressive faces on the crows and the chickens. This book will amuse children and satisfy teachers looking for something with the flavor of Midwestern cornfields, but few will find it especially memorable.?Jackie Hechtkopf, Talent House School, Fairfax, VACopyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.
