(3) K-3 My First I Can Read Book series. Illustrated by Ashley Wolff. In this beginning easy reader, a fish in a tub cheerfully makes room for a slew of animal friends. Unexpectedly, the final tiny visitor does not break up the party as in most cumulative stories of this kind, but instead happily joins in. Clear and pleasant drawings accompany the simple rhyming text.
