Editorial Reviews

"Wood’s use of simple text, high-frequency words, and narrative structure are the ideal blend of skills to engage emerging readers. Braun’s charming illustrations provide a splash of color to the humorous tales. A parent guide lists suggestions for building early literacy skills through shared reading, games, and art activities. Stickers are also included for added encouragement. Refreshing additions to beginning reader sections, and fans of 'Bob' books (Scholastic), developed by Bobby Lynn Maslen, will be overjoyed." — School Library Journal
