Publisher's Synopsis
The talented Mr. Helpless discovers his power.
A very nice man is "helped" so much that he and his helper think he's "Mr. Helpless." But when his helper suddenly leaves, Mr. Helpless sees the risks of depending. He begins using his own talents to design his life-and discovers he's powerful! He loves his new ideas so much that when his helper returns, he kindly but firmly tells her his real name. Eccentric, endearing illustrations help us share the joys of independence-from tying shoes to starting and finishing homework to choosing our favorite books, music, technology, and art.
