The Little Big Thinkers: A Collection of Children's Stories

By Patrick A. Davy

Swirling wind and dusts is no match for a boy and his sister’s determination to rescue some animals. Another character’s quick thinking to remain calm and tolerant allows him to trap the burglar. A boy determination to see his father, who has a life-threatening illness, pays off. Three kids help stop a bully from frightening the community people at night. Another youngster is relentless in his pursuit of the gift his grandmother promised him if he made it to high school. An eight-grade boy’s classmates mock him for having long legs. The boy put his legs to use when he outruns another boy and stops him from stealing food from the people in the community. A boy is good at many sports except swimming. When his class upcoming swimming trip nears, he decides he must learn how to swim. A boy witnessed a bully robbing a girl and running away. When a police officer shows up, the boy takes off because he fears telling on a bully. When he hears, on TV, that he is the suspect and not the bully, he knows he has to go to the police.
