Mrs. McNosh Hangs Up Her Wash

A giggle-producing beginning reader from New York Times bestselling author Sarah Weeks

Each Monday at dawn, Mrs. Nelly McNosh brings out a barrel and does a big wash.

Mrs. McNosh's wash is certainly big--and definitely wacky. You'll be surprised to see what is hanging on her clothesline by the end of the day!
