..."kuplink, kuplank, kuplunk!"...
...the distinct and memorable sound of fresh blueberries hitting the bottom of a metal pale...
... little ones (human and animal) and their moms enjoying the fruits of summer...
... and a classic tale of exploration, adventure, and happy full tummies.
Even though it was written over 30 years ago, Blueberries for Sal is still such a beautifully soft reminder of life's small wonders and similarities. Mix that with gorgeous illustrations by author Robert McCloskey, and a sweet and timeless story of mix ups gone right and you have one lovely page turner that never goes out of style.
We suggest reading this story along with a trip to your local berry patch so you too can hear the "kuplink, kuplank, kuplunk" of fresh berries in your pale!
Get out there and enjoy the fruits of the season!
