Vintage Children’s Book: “One Of Three” by Angela Johnson, 1991. Illustrated by David Soman. Condition is Good. Orchard Books. This is a heartwarming story about three sisters, Eva, Nikki, and “me.” They live together in apartment 2. They do everything together but sometimes they need time apart, and the youngest one needs to be with mama and daddy. This children’s novel is beautifully illustrated, it shows the warm relationship between sisters and activities that they do together growing up, such as playing dress-up, walking to school together in sunshine and in rain, playing hopscotch by the trashcans, going to the bakery, riding in a taxi on snowy days squeezed in with the family, trips to the clothing store, on the train, getting flowers from the flower shop, etc. This is a hard cover book with a jacket covered in plastic. It is an endearing story and will bring back memories of going to the library and picking out books as a child. Beautiful, nice large print, colorful, gorgeous illustrations, and brings us back to the nostalgia of earlier times.
