About this audiobook
Lizzie and Grandma haul the steaming washtub to the workbench and shave lye soap into the boiling water. They rub the clothes over the washboard, pull them through the wringer, and hang them to dry. In the end, the satisfaction of a job well done an unexpected guest, and a loving gesture make Lizzie's washday just about perfect.
