A great picture book for young children combining counting skills and an understanding of the importance of sharing and everybody doing their bit. It is a somewhat similar theme to the classic The Little Red Hen, though honestly I like this more.

The character Milly has to make bread when her friend gets sick, but she ignores her chores and has an even bigger mess to clean up later. Milly teaches students that working hard is important. If you don't work hard now, then you will have to work harder later! This story also models a great beginning, middle, and end.
