Books: The Many Hats of Jeremiah Porter
April 23, 2010 | Books,Iowa
We just read The Many Hats of Jeremiah Porter by Karen Carr, an Iowa author. The book was illustrated by Joan Nixt, also from Iowa. In fact, they’re very local. The inspiration for the book was Carr’s granddaughter, who attends my children’s elementary school. We got to meet them all on Saturday at our favorite bookstore, Bookadee. They were there for a reading and book-signing. They also brought some of Mrs. Porter’s chocolate-chip cookies. Yum!
Here they are in their butcher hats (one of Jeremiah Porter’s many hats).
