PreS-Gr 1—In this fourth easy reader starring Dixie, the curious pup with floppy ears eagerly hops on the bus unnoticed to join her owner on a class trip. At the dinosaur museum, Dixie hides not just one dinosaur bone but three, and she carries another one back to school. The story is told in short sentences of familiar words set in large type. The illustrations are colorful, and the layout has enough white space to make this book inviting and easy to read.—Janene Corbin, Rosebank Elementary School, Nashville, TN
