Baby Tom Can’t Run

Baby Tom Can’t Run

$25.00 – $33.00

Scout loves to run fast. She is training for the Kindy-School Sports Carnival and is certain her “special new shoes” will prepare her to “run like the wind” and she will win her race.

One morning before the Carnival, Scout races out the front door… “Feeling the wind of freedom pushing her forward, she ignores the rumbling roar of the traffic lying dead ahead…” Baby Tom follows Scout everywhere, and he hobbles after his sister, towards the fast moving and mightily scary Hi-Hey Highway. Fortunately Tula the Crossing Guardian is nearby, and she stops all the traffic. “Drivers can’t always see little children,” Dad explains to them later. In this sweet and charming story, Baby Tom and Scout learn 3 important things…

  1. the six rules that will help keep them safe
  2. the spirit of sportsmanship, and discovering how to “think… first”
  3. in a fast moving world… where everyone is in a hurry.
