After learning about the American Revolution on a family trip to Boston, Massachusetts, Judy Moody makes her own Declaration of Independence and tries to prove that she is responsible enough to have more freedoms, such as a higher allowance and her own bathroom.

"Little Red Henry's family treats him like a baby. They dress him. They feed him. They try to do everything for him. But he's not really a baby anymore. He's a little boy who wants to do things by himself. This makes his family nervous- at first. As they see that he is fine on his own, they discover time to do the things they love. But will things swing too far in the other direction? Even Little Red Henry wants to be at the center of attention sometimes....

When Kyle the sloth has to go to the bathroom, he must make the long trip down to the forest floor all alone, but soon finds lots of friends along his journey.

At bath time, a boy who believes he is ready to dress and undress himself gets stuck in his clothes, then imagines what life will be like if he remains that way forever.
