Get your silly on with Lucy and the String, a lighthearted, humorous, and entertaining read.
When Lucy happens to find a red string, she tugs on it, little knowing what it’s attached to. At first, she’s having a blast pulling, tugging, heaving, and yanking until she realizes she has unraveled Hank’s pants. Oh, did we mention Hank is a bear?
Lucy desperately endeavors to make amends with Hank and tries to restore the string back to its original form. She tries twisting and twirling it, but nothing works. With each attempt, Hank grows even more disgruntled.
Then Lucy has a eureka moment, and with Hank’s help knits a sweater. But oops, the sweater is too small!
Resourceful Lucy comes up with one more idea. What exactly will she do? Read this yarn of a story to find out.
