You Can Do It, Bert!

(2) PS Translated by Catherine Chidgey. Bert, a small bird, walks to the end of a branch, trepidation on his face. He looks like he's about to take a running start...but no, he's not. Finally, he takes the leap--into a pool of water where friends are waiting. Simple shapes, minimal detail, and direct-address text keep attention on the action. Preschoolers faced with new experiences will identify with Bert.
