We recently borrowed a biography of Annie Oakley, (part of the Step-into-Reading Series), from the library, which sparked our interest in this
"Woman of the West." It's amazing that Thomas Edison managed to capture a shooting demonstration on film.
Isobel was trying to decide who was better with a gun ~ her Stepdad John, or Annie Oakley. Finally she decided that John was a better sharpshooter, as he was alive, and Annie had died long ago. While discussing this with her Grandma (over the telephone), Isobel said, "
Skeletons can't do very much."
You've got to admit, she does have a point!
