Friends Are Fun

Pete is very happy living alone on his island. Then a friendly turtle, dog, and elephant come along! Perfect for kindergarteners and first-grades to read on their own.

One day, Turtle comes.
“May I stay?” says Turtle.
Pete says okay.

Then a dog and an elephant come too. When a storm rolls in, everyone works together to keep safe. Friends help each other. And friends are fun too!

The books in the award-winning I Like to Read series build vocabulary and promote fluency, which are essential for reading success.  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!
