Kathleen Doherty's storytelling skills sparkle and shine in her hilarious new picture book, THE THINGITY-JIG. Meet Bear, who has Rube Goldberg's inginutity and Little Red Hen's determination. When Bear finds an abandoned "thingity-jig" and his friends refuse to help him carry it home, he takes matters into his own paws. Readers will be enchanted by the playful language, and spellbound by the plot, as Bear relies on STEAM principals to overcome the obstacles he faces. Best of all, Bear also proves to be the best kind of friend that Rabbit, Racoon and Fox could ever wish for.The Thingity-Jig
