Pepo, a pig, and his companion Lolo the chick are good friends who run, jump, and sing together. They also work through such difficulties as being angry at each other and together figuring out how to get an apple down from a tree. The stories are slight, but the sturdy pages featuring brightly colored, mixed-media illustrations of the affectionate pair will draw in toddlers. Review covers these titles: Pepo and Lolo and the Red Apple and Pepo and Lolo Are Friends.

Choppy text wears down an otherwise appealing tale of a friendly ghost and his misadventures in the world of humans. Mistaken for a sheet, Woo finds himself washed and hung out to dry, among other indignities, before he finally summons his scary side. The breezy illustrations use color and just a few spare lines to suggest movement and personality.
