A No “Don’t” Day

Fred is a little boy who hates the word “don’t!”

Don’t forget to say your prayers.
Don’t chew with your mouth open.
Don’t cross the street without looking both ways.
Don’t, don’t, don’t!

Why do parents always have to say “don’t”? When Fred’s mom comes up with a NO “DON’T” DAY experiment, Fred is overjoyed. Will his mom really stop telling him “don’t” for a whole day? At the end of the story, both Fred and his mom learn a valuable lesson about love and respect.
