A little wolf's father gratefully accepts his son's offer to work with him in the garden, even though the cub is sometimes more of a hinderance than a help. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

The adult mows, hoes, pulls weeds, plants, sweeps, and more. The child asks, “Can I help…” every time and the parent responds, “Yes, please help me…” Most of the time the child’s “help” causes problems for the adult but instead of shooing away the young child, the adult continually encourages his or her participation. The story ends with parent and child cuddling in a hammock.
This story is written in a comfortable rhyming style, a single sentence per page except in the summary of each section. An attentive child will soon memorize the words.
What a beautiful message! Children want to feel helpful and capable. They want to participate in our world. They want to emulate us. They need our encouragement, not our criticism. They grow and blossom when included. ( )
