My Apron: A story from my childhood:
My Apron is the story of a small boy who idealizes his uncle who is a laborer, specifically a plasterer. The uncle's uniform is a long white apron with a large pocket on the front. The boy's aunt sews him an apron like his uncle's and the boy spends the day helping his uncle lay plaster. The boy feels proud of his accomplishments and forms a warm bond with his uncle through the experience of working together. My 2 1/2 year old son loves this book. He walks around the house with it saying, "Mommy, this is 'My Apron,' I love this book!" That speaks volumes to his mommy!
