I'm trying to remember the name of a children's book that was read to me in the second grade (1985). It was a picture book and it featured green, furry forest creatures that gave gifts to one another. One day, a creature decided to accept a gift but not give one in return, and if memory serves me, it then turned blue. The creature that did not receive a reciprical gift was hurt and followed the example of the other creature. Eventually the whole colony was corrupt. The moral was essentially that one bad apple can spoil a bunch, or that you should continue to do good to those that don't recipricate (or do you harm). Does anyone know the name of this book?
Children's book name: green, furry forest creatures give gifts?
You could try this website http://www.logan.com/loganberry/ and look under "book stumper." I did a quick search there under "solved mysteries" for your question but came up empty--maybe you could take a shot though. It's a bookstore and you can submit a query for a charge of $2. They seem to have a pretty good success rate. Good luck!
