Description
Terrence Tullgren tells the fresh and inspiring story of a young boy who learns the value of work. Donnie's friend Billy gets a new computer, but his mother can't afford one. Donnie's mother takes him on a walk through the woods near his home. She shows him how a mother deer teach her fawn to find food. She also shares the story of how she learned to support him. Donnie learns that he can get what he needs through practice and patience, and starts to explore a new way to earn money for his own computer. The book helps young children realize the value of earning. The story is beautifully told, in words any child can easily relate to and understand. The pencil-line, retro illustrations by Charles Gibson hearken back to a time of old fashioned values as they skillfully complement the text and reinforce this important lesson. The cover intentionally features black and white images so that the reader has no preconceived notion of how to color within, therefore fostering each child's innate creativity and imagination. The result is a must-own book for any child. Tullgren weaves a story both touching and impactful for young hearts and minds. Donnie Learns There's No Entitlement is the sixth book in the Donnie Learns series on values for young people.
