    Best book to teach charity

    I bought this book for my grandchildren after owning my own copy for many years. It teaches selfless giving and my 8 and 11 year old grandsons loved it.

    One of my favorites growing up!

    My son loves this book. Just like I did. I also love the author. I have bought a few of his other books and I'm sure I still have a few put away.

    All-time classic

    This book is one of those rare tales that works wonderfully for a bedtime read by mom or dad, or the child - but delivers a very sophisticated and adult life lesson about the price of taking too much without giving back. It's an allegory about resources of every kind - emotional or natural - and how they can so easily be depleted and never regained...
