The Family Under the Bridge by Natalie Savage Carlson

4.0

This is the story of a Parisian hobo named Armand who was enjoying his solitary life when all of a sudden three children and their mother accidentally came into his life. Struck by these sweet, innocent starlings, Armand begins to grow and rethink his life. Armand doesn't realize it at the time but he eventually turns into a family man and becomes their "grandpapa" and a job has a new meaning for him. I love how Garth Williams was the illustrator of this heartfelt story! We read this book as a family and really enjoyed it!
