Yes, it's a children's book–but it's not Ishmael for six-year-olds. As Daniel has said in reply to many queries about this, "The minds of small children don't need changing. If they grow up in a household of changed minds, then they'll automatically share their family's view of the world and humanity's place in it. If they grow up in a household of unchanged minds, THEN they'll be ready to meet Ishmael!"

But Work, Work, Work is a very special children's book. It's not designed for lulling kids to sleep or for passive listening while Mom or Dad reads and rereads the story to them. Each page is an invitation for kids (and parents alike) to participate in discovering and in a real sense creating their own experience of the story as it goes along!
