Think, Dear — Aliki Brandenberg

This treasury of tales by acclaimed children's author Aliki centers on Charles, a young crocodile who sometimes has trouble focusing or staying on task. Kids will appreciate these appealing, whimsically illustrated fables, especially children coping with ADD/ADHD. The three stories include:
Keep Your Mouth Closed, Dear. Charles just can't keep his big crocodile mouth shut, so he accidentally swallows soap, hats, zippers, and other indigestible items -- until a solution appears while he helps Mother with the housework.
Use Your Head, Dear. It's so hard to pay attention that Charles falls asleep in the bathtub and leaves the dustpan in the refrigerator. Will Father's birthday present help the forgetful little crocodile keep his mind on what he's doing?
Are You Thinking Again, Dear? This all-new story follows Charles to school, where he gets into trouble with his teacher as well as the principal for being absent-minded instead of present-minded. Great-Uncle Crocódila, a famous scientist, has some wise words about the power of thinking.
