Appealing to children's imaginative and playful side A Lesson a Day: A Child's Way teaches valuable, everyday lessons with the help of colorful animals and inanimate objects working their way through problems.   A skunk who is proud of who he is, a fearful duckling deciding to finally take the plunge, a disobeying baby bear who finds himself lost, and a rude and pushy alligator meeting his match, these poems are a delight and offer a fun way to empower children with knowledge and problem-solving skills. Each is written in the format of a fable as there is a lesson in every one. Children who read and listen to the book (and the adults who narrate it) will be inspired as they learn, grow, and apply the lessons learned to their everyday lives.
