Paperback. Wise Wendell is a 40-page picture book in narrative verse for an intergenerational audience that brings families together while developing vocabulary for five- to eight-year-olds. It tells the story of a seven-year-old boy who, insisting that he is old enough to groom himself, discovers a single white hair on his head. Frightened by the unusual sight, he fears that he is growing old. Seeking an explanation for this oddity, he questions his mother, father, and teacher--none of whom provide a satisfactory explanation for him. Finally coming to his rescue are his doting grandparents who attend his birthday celebration and provide the answer that he seeks.The theme is that one doesn't gain wisdom on his own: he must seek it from those who have it, and its pursuit is worthwhile, no matter what the age. Because of its whimsical rhyme, Wise Wendell is a book that parents and grandparents can enjoy reading aloud with their children and grandchildren. On his 7th birthday a boy insists he's old enough to groom himself until he sees a white hair on his head. He seeks an explanation from his parents and teacher. They can't provide one. His grandparents finally do the night of his celebration. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
