K-3I Can Read Book series.
In Adventure, Little Critter goes fishing with his dad and they suffer a number of near disasters. In Pick Us, Little Critter and his friends organize a pet adoption fair on behalf of the local animal shelter. Problems arise and are immediately resolved in these tame and choppy easy readers, but there are plenty of humorous details in Mayer's cheery illustrations. Review covers these I Can Read Book titles: Little Critter: Just an Adventure at Sea and Little Critter: Just Pick Us, Please!
