(4) K-3 I Am a Reader! series. Illustrated by Christopher Denise. In three episodic chapters, Teeny, a monkey, and Tugg, a gorilla, demonstrate true friendship with their jungle neighbors: they cheer up a self-conscious hippo who thinks she's fat, help a dejected rhino find his lost horn, and invite everyone to a potluck for Good Neighbor Day. The resolutions are underwhelming, but soft illustrations of animals in their jungle setting are amiable.
