Jan Berenstain - The Berenstain Bears Neighbor in Need

The Good Deed Scouts
are on the job! said Scout Sister.
We do a good deed each and every day,
said Scout Lizzy.

As the Bible says, Scout Fred
pointed out, we should be
rich in good deeds.
Good point, Fred, said Scout Brother.

Look, said Sister.
Mrs. Grizzle is mowing grass.
That looks hard!
Mrs. Grizzle was the cubs babysitter.
Hello, Mrs. Grizzle, said Brother.
May we help you?

Thanks! said Mrs. Grizzle.
Be my guest! This is hot work.
I will get us all a cool drink.

The Good Deed Scouts pushed
the lawn mower.

They pulled dandelions.

They weeded the flower beds.

They trimmed bushes.

They got hot and tired.
Mrs. Grizzle came out with
a tray of lemonade.

They all sat down in the shade
to cool off. The lemonade
tasted great.

Do you need more help, Mrs. Grizzle?
asked Sister.

Do I ever! laughed Mrs. Grizzle.
Theres always work to be done
around here!

The Good Deed Scouts took out
the garbage.

They swept the
garage.

The Good Deed Scouts walked
Mrs. Grizzles dog, Scooter.

They gave her cat, Daisy, a bath.

Daisy did not like her bath.
She climbed up the
kitchen curtains!

Mrs. Grizzle helped the Scouts dry off.
You Scouts worked very hard,
said Mrs. Grizzle.
You should get something back.
We dont want anything, said Brother.

Good Deed Scouts do a good deed
each and every day.
Like it says in the Book of Matthew:
In everything, do to others
what you would want them to do to you.

Thats fine, Mrs. Grizzle said.
But I do good deeds too.
I like to do tricks.
Would you like to see some?
Oh, yes! said the Scouts.

The cubs loved her amazing tricks.

So Mrs. Grizzle
did tricks.
She pulled a
rabbit out of
a hat.

She made
a bunch of
flowers appear
out of the air.

She pulled a quarter out of Lizzys ear.
