K-3Brand New Readers series.
Illustrated by
Tim Nihoff.
In four very brief stories for beginning readers, Otter has an unusual picnic; takes a bath with mountains of bubbles; goes swimming (or tries to); and accidentally gathers enough apples for lots of pies. The simple text follows the series format--one line per page, with touches of humor to keep the stories interesting. Cheery illustrations provide beginning readers with visual clues.
