The style of writing and the illustrations would make this book appealing to children. The style of writing is simple and very easy to understand for children.

My most rewarding achievement was becoming a certified nursing assistant (CNA) this past month. My younger years were always spent in a nursing home or a group home for disabled adults. Both grandmothers were CNA’s at the time and was always working. They are both still currently there working‚ hard as ever‚ they are in their sixties and plan to retire soon.

Volunteering at a saturday school with 4-5 year olds I became very good and comforting a child when sad or lonely. I work well with little children and enjoy being with them.
