This is a story that celebrates the non-conforming child. Instead of being a "doer" like most of the other kids he knows, George is a watcher. He watches television. He watches cars and trucks. He watches clouds in summer and snow falling in winter, and he watches big machines. Unfortunately, George doesn't have any friends.
