The Wise Woman and Her Secret

Once, not so long ago, in the hills past the hollow, there lived a wise woman...

The wise woman is so wise that people come from far and wide to learn the secret of her wisdom. "You will have to discover it for yourselves," she tells them. So they search and search, but there is nothing to be found! Is something strange going on? Perhaps the old woman is nothing but a mischief maker! Only one little girl named Jenny lags behind, her lingering eyes noticing things that the others don't. Will Jenny discover the secret that everyone else has missed? Acclaimed author Eve Merriam has written a wise and wonderful tale that speaks to the child in each of us.
