Louie the Layabout

Somehow this story had me thinking of Paul Bunyan. Maybe it will get readers thinking about other characters who were extra large in size. Louie is taller than everyone else in his community. He tries different jobs, but fails at each one. Finally he leaves home, moved to Pfeffernut County where a farmer is able to put him to work chasing crows, and watering and harvesting crops. Written by Nick Healy, with illustrations by Sahin Erkocak, this might also be a resource when discussing self esteem.
