Overview: Ever had a day where there was too much to do? Where you needed two of you? Three? Maybe four? This picture book counts through the reasons when the extra help can create certain problems. The problems mount as more work is added to the list. You will have to read the book to find out how Leo gets himself out of the mess.

Activity: Fold construction paper into fan zigzags and cut out patterns that create multiple images of the same pattern. Discuss what you would do if you had an extra person who would do your homework or your chores.
