Tied Up In Knots

Carl Sommer's Series Another Sommer-Time Story is outstanding.  Congratulations to an author who understand[s] the importance of imparting values that last a lifetime (and promote healthy attitudes).  Tied up in Knots is a wonderful example of the excellence with which all of Sommer's books were written.  Colorful, whimsical, practical and most of all full of kids like yours.  If you're looking for books that impart wisdom...you've found some of the best.

Learning to share was a tough lesson for two stubborn mules, but they succeeded in teaching their owners…that sharing brings happiness.
        Great addition to Character Education library.

What child couldn't relate to a story about sibling rivalry?  This lovely story deals with conflict and ways to solve it using teamwork and sharing. It's simple and delivers a message any child could grasp.

I just finished reading the Sommer-Time Story series to my three year old daughter.  I thought she would be too young for the books but she listened to every word!  Tied up in Knots was especially timely for us.  After reading it we discussed how by sharing and cooperating the donkeys were both able to get what they wanted.
        The pictures were also wonderful and my daughter loved reading me the books by looking at the illustrations.  I wish there were more books for children with the clear moral stories that these have.
