In Coop Helps Out, the youngest member of the Wheelie family learns that by serving others, we can serve Jesus.
When Demas, the son of a world-famous race car, makes fun of how Pops' job as the town garbage truck makes him dirty and smelly, Coop starts to wish his father had a more popular, cleaner, cooler job. But when Pops gets sick, Coop learns how important being a garbage truck really is and steps in to help clean up the town. Coop discovers that his father's humble, selfless service points to Jesus, the best servant of all, who came to clean up the mess in our hearts.
The second book in The Wheelies series, written by Sarah Reju and illustrated by Tania Rex, Coop Helps Out will teach children ages 3–8 that they can serve others because of how Jesus has served them.
"Coop Helps Out shows the beauty of a servant's heart and the joy of serving where the Lord has placed you, all while pointing children to the Gospel. Your children will fall in love with Coop and you'll be happy to read this lovely book again and again!"
Korrie Johnson, Founder of Good Book Mom
