Beskrivelse

Dive into a delightful collection of whimsical poems by the renowned American physician and author, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. In The Deacons Masterpiece, discover the amusing logical outcome of constructing a flawless two-wheeled carriage known as a shay, which inspired the economic term one hoss shay reflecting a specific model of depreciation. How the Old Horse Won the Bet offers a playful take on the excitement of a horse race, while The Broomstick Train provides a charmingly spooky explanation of how an electric tram operates, perfect for the Halloween spirit. Join narrator Laurie Anne Walden as she brings these enchanting verses to life!
