K-3Ready-to-Read series.
Illustrated by
Brian Floca.
In School, hamster friends Max and Mo move to the art room (though it's unclear why), sneak out of their cage, and make nametags for themselves. In Apple, they snack on some homemade applesauce (recipe included). Though the plots are confusing, the vocabulary is easy to read; clean, delicate-line illustrations add appeal. A craft project is appended to each story. Review covers these Ready-to-Read titles: Max & Mo Go Apple Picking and Max & Mo's First Day at School.
