Little Clare wanted to stay in the water much longer than everyone else and so she began to cry. What could Uncle Billy do to comfort her and help her to accept that play time in the water was over. Everyone else was ready to enjoy the family barbecue and Clare needed to get dressed and join the others. And so Uncle Billy found a way to let this little girl choose for herself the right thing to do. Read the story and find out what happened.
