This book has been tested by the official Fountas and Pinnel leveling system.

You will also like Can You Find Pup?, another I Like to Read(R) book by Vincent X. Kirsch.

Level F books, for early first graders, feature longer, more varied sentences than Level E. Level F books encourage kids to decode new multi-syllable words in addition to recognizing sight words. Stories are more complex, and illustrations provide support and additional detail. When Level F is mastered, follow up with Level G.

The award-winning I Like to Read(R) series focuses on guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas and Pinnell standards. Acclaimed author-illustrators--including winners of Caldecott, Theodor Seuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors--create original, high-quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read again and again with their parents, teachers or on their own!

K-Gr 2--A cute interactive reader about a child, Tate, and Tate's toy, Pup. Tate, who is white, runs out of things to draw and decides to look for inspiration. Along the way, Pup sees five pups, who start to follow them. Tate and Pup visit what looks like an eclectic museum of natural history, and they draw while at each venue or installation. Readers get to see Tate's drawings, in which the book asks them to find a number of things. For example, "Can you see six dinosaurs?" or "Can you see eight planets?" After each question is always the follow-up, "Can you see the five pups?" Using watercolor, ink, and graphite, among other things, to create a whimsical setting, Kirsch presents charming characters in Tate and Pup. Although there is more activity than story, readers will be entertained by Tate and Pup, and there is enough text for beginning readers to practice without becoming frustrated. Similar titles include Eric Carle's 10 Little Rubber Ducks and Hervé Tullet's Press Here. VERDICT An artistic, quick read that uses short counting activities to engage readers. Recommended for purchase.--Hilary Tufo
