A Bucket of Blessings by Kabir Sehgal and Surishtha Sehgal illustrated by Jing Jing Tsong

A mother and son wrote this book together.
This Indian myth reinforces how we may bless others without realizing.
The land is dry and the animals are concerned.  Monkey has heard that peacock can dance to make it rain so he sets off to make his request known.  When the peacock informs him that he needs water to make it rain, monkey is delighted when he discovers a cave with a spring.  He lugs a bucket full of water back to peacock to realized the bucket had a leak.  Surprising results occur and teach a meaningful lesson.
Strategies: main idea
