Book Description:

This is the story of a very badly behaved man, how a young boy invents a plan to change his behavior, and, with the help of the other villagers, succeeds. Children, of course, love the idea of an adult behaving badly. At the same time, the story helps children learn valuable lessons about initiative, negotiation, conflict resolution and cooperation.
