Give and Take Chris Raschka

Marc Notes: A Richard Jackson Book.; In his apple orchard, a farmer meets a little man named Take and follows his advice, which does not turn out well, and the next day meets a little man named Give, whose advice is just as bad.; Ages 4-8. Publisher Marketing: A clever story of greed and goodness, and the art of finding the in-between, from two-time Caldecott Medalist Chris Raschka, creator of the" New York Times "bestselling "A Ball for Daisy." Watch the farmer's ear. Now watch the two small, clever fellows in pointy hats whispering into it, first one, then the other. Give and Take. They cannot agree. Listen now to the farmer talk back--and, in this story of apples, pumpkins, pigs, and a final surprise, he just might get the better of both of them.
