Reddit mentions of A Day's Work

In early with a wild theory: I googled the title and found a children's story about a migrant worker whose grandson lies about his grandfather's qualifications to get a job. At the end of the day the grandfather makes sure to correct the lie, teaching his grandson about honesty and integrity, and is given a second chance. This seems pretty consistent with many of Don's themes - he lied his way into his identity and his job then finally told the truth. Will he be given a second chance? Will he finally make an honest living? http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0395845181?pc_redir=1397787212&robot_redir=1
