Papâa's magical water-jug clock
by Jesâus Trejo
"Little Jesâus is excited to spend a Saturday with his landscaper Papâa at the "family business." He loves Papâa's cool truck and all the tools he gets to use. Papâa even puts him in charge of the magical water jug, which is also a clock! When it's empty, Papâa explains, the workday will be done. It's a big job, and Jesâus wants to do it right. But he just can't help giving water to an array of thirsty animals--a dog in a sweater, some very old cats, and a flock of peacocks. Before he knows it, the magical water jug is empty--but the workday's not over yet! Will Jesâus be fired?! Or is the jug not really magical after all?"
