Description: Mr. Greedy discovers his large size can be useful when he helps Mr. Snooty close overstuffed suitcases by sitting on them, leading him to start a business as a "suitcase squasher". The story highlights how his weight, usually a problem (like breaking his bed or making baths overflow), becomes a helpful skill, allowing him to find a job and a new sense of purpose.
