The teacher was very surprised to see the picture Douglas handed in. Its a hand, a simple hand.But whose hand? The class were very interested in the strange picture. “I think it must be the hand of God that bring us food,” said one child, “A farmer,” said another, “Because he grows beautiful flowers.” Finally when the others were at work, the teacher went over Douglas desk and asked whose hand it was. “Its your hand, Teacher,” she said quietly and shyly.She remembered that she had often taken Douglas, a dirty lonely child, by the hand while having a class break.
