Cover Club: The Happy Little Handsaw

Cover Club is supposed to be about the cover, but with The Happy Little Handsaw we had to include inside images to get the full breadth of this kid's book. Put out in 1955 by West Coast Lumberman's Association, it's pretty much what you imagine it is: a story of a happy handsaw used to convince kids that logging is a-ok. There is a great image in the book of the handsaw being not-so-happy and crying while sitting on a lumberjack's lap, but I didn't include it so as not to upset the kids. It's the happy little handsaw after all!
