An example for civic responsibility

Dewey Doo-it Feeds A Friend is a delightful children's story about helping others, collaboratively written by Brahm Wenger and Alan Green in homage of a real-life woman named Bea Gaddy -- who would collect food from small neighborhood grocery stores and used it to feed her family, her neighbors, and others, until she created a chain of helpers to fight hunger on a grand scale. Illustrated by Jean Gillmore, this playful picture book features a courageous and helpful characters that kids can relate as they bring food to a friend in need -- and in doing so, is set an example for civic responsibility. Dewey Doo-it Feeds A Friend is a life-enhancing and compassion-affirming picture book story.

Dewey Doo-it Books - teaching kindness & compassion

I love the names of the characters in this book - Dewey Doo-it, Howie Doo-it, Kenya Doo-it, Anita Doo-it and the twins, Woody and Willy Doo-it. But even more, I appreciate the way the cast of ingenious "Doo-its" teaches my kids. This clever story teaches them that although we may be surrounded by troubles and social injustice, there are real life heroes who right the wrongs through good works, creativity, and tireless effort. I am so happy to find a book that tells my kids that they can do it - they can make a difference through their life choices. I recommend "Dewey Doo-it Feeds a Friend", and I plan to buy the remaining three books of the series as they are released in the months ahead. Thank you to "The Helpful Doo-its Project."

Dewey Doo It Feeds a Friend

I'm a grandmother of 23 grandchildren so have a great deal of experience reading to childen over many years. I always try to choose something that will deliver a message while grabbing attention, usuallly with splashy illustrations I think no one's too young to start developing a social conscience and this book helps toward that goal. The age range recommended could be upped a little.
