reviewed Uncle Willie and the Soup Kitchen on
This is a wonderful book to help children become more aware and more sensitive toward the poor.Uncle Willie is a sweet, lovable character that gets you wishing he was your uncle Willie. My dad had bought this book for my younger boys some years ago and we still read it regularly. As a matter of fact it's my youngest son's favorite book right now(he is 5). Other books have come and gone in our family library, but this is one of those books that seems to always stick around.
