Max and the Baby-sitter

Max is four years old and lives in New York. His Mommy is a nurse, and his Daddy is a fireman, so he has to spend each day at his baby-sitter's. But her house is cold, and Max is afraid of her cat.

Finally, one day, Max tells his parents how he feels. They don't want him to be unhappy, so they start looking for a new baby-sitter. And it isn't long before they find the perfect one. She even has a puppy.

Mother of nine, Danielle Steel understands children's feelings, and with warmth and tenderness shows how parents can help children banish their fears.
