K-3Bank Street Ready-to-Read series.
Illustrated by
Bari Weissman.
Pete cuddles up with his mom as she tells him a three-part bedtime story in which he stars. Lengthy sentences make the reader more difficult than its Level 1 rating suggests, and the textual shifts between each new story-within-a-story are rather abrupt, though the illustrations--showing Pete tucked under his covers again--help ease the transitions.
