From the Back Cover
"Robert, if you woke up fourteen mornings in a row wondering if it were worth it to get out of bed because you felt like you'd been giving one hundred percent to two dozen people and getting only thirty percent in return and . . ."
From the Inside Flap
Almost everyone remembers doing story problems in school. But as best-selling author Carol Lynn Pearson (A Stranger for Christmas) demonstrates, those story problems don't end with a diploma. In fact, the equations big boys and girls face are often the most challenging--and the most rewarding. Pearson's clever tale and Kathleen Peterson's evocative pastels will inspire you to return to the classroom for a timely lesson.
Readers of all ages will be drawn to this first of a series of titles by modern writers using the classic fable form.

On Robert's first day at school, he had a wonderful time. He swung on the swings. He sang with the other children. He listened to the stories. He loved sitting at a desk and smelling new paper and touching new pencils. And his teacher was very, very nice.
