Tied Up In Knots

Tied Up In Knots is a story about two stubborn mules who have trouble finding a solution to their problem. As their two young owners, Benny and Sally observe, the stubborn mules become more and more tied up as their problem continues. Sometimes it's difficult to see our way through a problem, especially for children, and it may take a little outside help to intervene. The stubborn mules come to a compromise and Benny and Sally learn a lesson in sharing and also come to resolve some of their own differences.

Captivating for little ones!

All children everywhere have struggled with the concept of sharing. Getting along with you siblings and others can be challenging for young children. This story works out those conflicts creatively through the idea of teamwork. What a great book to entertain your children and teach them a valuable truth.

Nice story. not so cute pictures

I have read other Sommer time stories with my 5 year old who loves them. But I think this is not so good compared to the others because of the pictures. The story is nice, about two mules who learn to share their food because they are tied up and it is the only way to eat because their food is meters apart and the rope is not too long for them to eat without sharing. When they learn to share, their owners (a little boy and a little girl) do too.

It's time To Share

Tied Up In Knots, was an adorable book, with very cute illustrations. I really liked this story. The two mules were just like their owners. Until they finally figured out how to share. I loved the colors used in the pictures and the expressions of the characters. This story should be purchased by all parents. Good job Sommer-time books.

Benny and Sally don't mind doing their farm chores and caring for their mules, but they absolutely refuse to share. Their mules, Bossy and Stiffy, imitate their owners' selfish ways by stubbornly refusing to let anyone else ride them, and fussing whenever they work together doing farm work. Dad needs to teach the mules a lesson. He ties them together which forces them to learn to cooperate in order to eat. After much struggling, the mules learn to work together, and teach their owners Benny and Sally that sharing brings happiness. This delightful story by Carl Sommer shows the importance of cooperation, tolerance and respect. Grades K-3.
