K-3I Can Read Book series.
Grandpa Spanielson tells his sick grandpup one of his "famous anti-itch Chicken Pox Stories"--an adventurous yarn about a swashbuckling swordfish fight with a giant octopus. In this ambitious start to a new I Can Read series, Cazet helps readers with the story-within-a-story format by providing plenty of visual clues to signal the change from the sickbed to the anti-itch story.
