Pet Reader

A book of animal friends designed to help children find their reading legs. Lawson serves up short, bouncy verses about familiar creatures, the dog, the cat, the bird, the horse, each one written with the careful simplicity that makes emerging readers feel brave. These aren't fancy poems. They're warm, rhythmic, sometimes funny, always gentle. A dog that chases his tail, a cat that naps in the sun, a bird learning to fly. Children learn to read while meeting the creatures they love. It's the kind of book that builds confidence one rhyme at a time, and it does so without ever feeling like work. Perfect for early readers and the perfect bedtime read-aloud for families with little ones just learning their letters.
