The Red Wood Wagon

I think every child of a certain age wanted a wagon- especially a red wagon.  Some lucky child pulled this charming wagon to and from school, with their books and lunch in tow.  Chipped and haphazardly repaired, this worn wooden wagon was obviously some child's favorite toy. Kids today frequently dream of their first bike or skateboard.   But, to the children of a different century this wagon would have been the thing dreams were made of.  It was very likely a very special gift for a very special little boy or girl and would have brought them years of joy and adventure.
