(3) K-3 Bank Street Ready-to-Read series. Illustrated by R. W. Alley. A young girl wants to play catch with Lulu, but where is she? Each family member sends her searching in a different place, and when the girl gives up and starts playing by herself, Lulu--whom the cheery watercolors reveal to be a dog--returns to join the fun. Large print and simple vocabulary will help make this book reach its intended audience.
