The Make Me Beautiful Collection By David Drake Four delightful children's stories that encourage creativity - the Children draw the illustrations Click here for excerpt.

     These four, delightful, short stories demonstrate how helpfulness to others has its own special, wonder-filled rewards. Uniquely, each story allows the child to "make the book beautiful" by inserting his or her own drawings. It becomes a family treasure for the ages.

Little Wheel is lonely and feels useless until the old man across the street needs his help.
Old Mr Muckanstuff - the trash man - has been there to help those in need for six decades. When he needs help, the town folks come to his aid.
Little Leaf willingly worked hard all spring and summer making food for his tree and clean air for the animals and people nearby. When fall arrived he began a grand adventure he had never dreamed of.
The Rainbow Princess left her Rainbow Castle (which was against the rules) to play with the animals in the meadow. When her rainbow disappears, her new animal friends help her search for it.
