    The Little Red Hen
    Hooray for a good work ethic! The little red hen asks but receives no help in her efforts to put bread on the table. Yet all who wouldn't help would like to eat. In a refreshingly old-fashioned triumph of moral consequences, they don't get to!

    Noisy Nora
    Poor Nora! The loveable mousette experiences all the pangs of the child-in-the- middle, caught between the demands of baby brother and bossiness of big sister. Catchy meter, playful illustrations make for a wonderfully satisfying mouse's tale. Baby-Preschool

My hubby did this at our local police department in Plymouth and loved it! Great way to get to know how your public servants serve you and get to know some people within the township and the township office:).

Our city police department (Grand Prairie, TX) offers this too, about twice a year. I'd love to do it some time but it falls on a bad night of the week for us.
