  <default_description>This genuinely funny picture book is a classic -- one of the  first that starred Mercer Mayer's popular Little Critter. In this title, young  readers see Little Critter trying very hard to be a good helper. Unfortunately,  something always seems to get in his way. When he tries to dry dishes for his  mother, the dishes grow slippery. When he makes an effort not to splash water  out of the tub, a storm comes up. On and on it goes, with Little Critter and his  good intentions making readers laugh with him from start to finish. </default_description>
