See the Ghost: Three Stories about Things You Cannot See (See the Cat #3)
Description

The Geisel Award-winning creators of See the Cat and See the Dog return for a comical new spoof on primers--and this time the cat, the dog, and the book are grappling with some curious things they can't see.

See the wind blow the leaves. See the wind blow the leaves off the page. See the wind blow the dog off the page. It's not easy to enjoy a picnic when you have unseeable interlopers to contend with! In a new trio of stories for beginning readers, the affable Max the dog and mischievous Baby Cakes the cat encounter a scare-happy ghost who has a run-in with a mirror, the wind at its blustery best, and a teeny-tiny fairy with a wayward wand who may have met her match.

With playfully meta flair, author David LaRochelle and illustrator Mike Wohnoutka bring back their lovable characters for an amusing foray into things that go "Boo!," "Whoosh!," and "Hey! . . . Will you let me back into the book?"

Starred Review
This Geisel-winning series keeps the bar high with this newest installment. Not only does it set beginning readers up for success with repetition and context clues galore, but it entertains to its very core.

Starred Review
Broken into three stories, LaRochelle's accessible text will inspire confidence and giggles in new readers. Wohnoutka's gouache, comics-inspired illustrations use speech balloons to ratchet up the humor while providing context cues to support emerging decoding skills. . . See the star? Buy the book.
