Harold’s Community Connection (Book 20)
A volunteer effort. An ego trip. A lesson in actually helping.
✅ Laugh-out-loud chaos that kids actually finish
✅ Fast chapters + high momentum for reluctant readers
✅ A gentle life-lesson: empathy without the lecture
🌍 About the Book
A botched, ego-driven volunteer effort teaches Harold that genuinely helping others requires asking what they actually need, rather than guessing.
Harold Mitchell is twelve years old and wants the glory of being a community hero. He launches a massive charity project without consulting anyone, leading to a warehouse full of things nobody needs and a bruised ego.
This is the story of what happens when you try to help for the wrong reasons, and the hilarious, chaotic reality of learning to listen before you leap.
