K-3I Like to Read series.
Nate likes to skate, while Kate likes hats. The friends butt heads, but later apologize ("I was a brat") and discover they actually do enjoy each other's interest when they give it a chance. The simple controlled vocabulary, repeated phonic units, and generous white space squarely target emergent readers. Textured crayon illustrations depict the action, featuring animal characters with expressive, childlike faces.
