One beautiful day, while Nosy Fox is strolling through the
forest, he spies a bear he's never seen before. When he asks
Brainy Owl who the bear is and what it's doing, Nosy Fox finds
out that the bear is named Jack and is making the world a better
place. Nosy Fox has a difficult time believing that Jack is
doing such a thing, especially since all the bear has is a smile
and a jar of honey. Although Nosy Fox insists that monarchs and
government officials, scientists and peace prize winners,
philosophers and hard-working citizens all have more authority
and responsibility in making the world a better place, Brainy
Owl points out that what those people can do is actually limited
--and so, they all need Jack's help. The story is fun to read,
while it also teaches us an important lesson in a gentle and
humorous way. The narrative is told with simple text and is able
to convey complex terms and ideas in a way that is easily
accessible to younger readers and listeners. The conversation
between Nosy Fox and Brainy Owl
