Sody salleratus

Book 1996

A seemingly simple trip to the store for a box of sody salleratus (baking soda) turns into a disappearing act for a boy, a girl, an old man and an old woman in this humorous retelling of a traditional Appalachian folktale. It's all up to a little squirrel--who's looking forward to having biscuits for supper--to discover their fate and rescue them. Full color.
