Emma Lea wants to have some one-on-one time with her father. Trouble is, Dad is busy with chores. Emma Lea doesn't fuss or cry or complain. Rather, she sets a good example for other children by spending time preparing the tea party while her father completes his chores. Emma Lea uses a blunt knife to cut fruit and make simple sandwiches. She prepares the kettle but waits for her father to ignite the stove fire. This is another great example for children to follow in terms of safety. When all is said and done, Emma Lea and her father enjoy a special time of togetherness that was well worth the wait. They don't dawdle but rather talk about what's been going on in their life. Focusing on patience and family time, this book is great for life lessons. Also included at the end of this wonderfully illustrated book is an easy recipe for tea cookies.
