K-Gr 2—Mr. Putter and Tabby go on their most exciting adventure yet: a trip to the library for a special "read with your pet" storytime. The two usually lead a pretty calm existence, but Mr. Putter is willing to try something new because of his fond memories of his teachers reading stories to the class. He shares his news with Mrs. Teaberry, and she signs up, too, bringing her dog Zeke. Mr. Putter is a good library reader and he chooses his book with care. The readings come off without a hitch—or well, almost (Zeke!)—and the group is rewarded with stickers and free bookmarks. This is another solid easy reader from this creative team, with the standard larger font, simple sentences, cartoon illustrations, and excellent use of white space. A perfect selection for storytime or anytime sharing.—Melisa Bailey, Harford County Library System, MD
Mr. Putter and cat Tabby love quiet reading time, but the library's "read-aloud with your pet" storytime sounds like fun. Will it still be fun, though, if Mrs. Teaberry brings her adventure-loving dog, Zeke? Books and reading are the stars of this installment in the satisfying series. The spirited illustrations and warm text reflect the characters' personalities and respect new readers' abilities.
