Motor Bill and the Lovely Caroline

Bill doesn’t have a job, can’t tie a bow, and plays all day. Although he can’t do some of the things other people can, he has a wonderful imagination. Everyone is kind to him, but they don’t understand what is most important to him: Bill believes his wooden car is real. Caroline from the fabric store almost under-stands, so one day Bill plans a picnic for the two of them. The storekeepers give him ginger ale, pies, and fruit, and everyone cheers as Bill and Caroline “drive” into the countryside. After a lovely picnic, Caroline teaches him to tie a bow, and together they discover that when a dream is shared, it can come true. With warmth and perceptiveness, this touching story pays tribute to the power of imagination and love.
