Great Story Lesson
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I don't know who enjoyed this book more my daughter or me. The lesson is don't complain because your situation could be worse. The story is about a family,including Grandparents, who live in a small house and a wise man suggests that the woman move the farm animals into the house. This was because the woman complained about the lack of space and fighting that was happening in the home. Then the wise man tells the woman to remove all the animals and she was so happy to have the space again. Great story about appreciating what we have.
She marveled it again!

Excelent read-aloud story for preschoolers and young grade schoolers. This folktale takes place in a farm setting where grandparents, parents and their 6 children all live in one house. This story carries a lesson of conformity. Vlasta's frolicsome watercolor illustration is so vivid that it makes the reader feel the "crowding" sensation of HOW MUCH WORSE CAN IT BE!!
