K-3I Like to Read series.
Frog tries to help Peeper, a bird with a broken wing, and Zeep, an alien with a broken spaceship, regain flight: "Peeper and Zeep go up. / Peeper and Zeep go down. / Frog will try again." Eventually their families come looking for them, and they all live happily together. The simple sentences and offbeat, naively styled illustrations explore themes of perseverance, friendship, and belonging.
