Little Man never wants to have anything on his clothes. When him and his siblings were walking to school, Little Man was walking slow so he won't get any doesn't get any dirt on him. While walking, he said," Y'all get dirty if y'all wanna. Me, I'm gonna stay clean." ( page 4 ) While at school, Little Man started a temper tantrum. He didn't like the book he had.
