Big Dog wants to be friends. But what is a friend? asks Little Dog.
Readers will learn the answer in this funny, heartwarming story. This
level G book is perfect for new readers.
Friends have fun, Big Dog explains. They could take a train to the
zoo, a bus to the boats, or a rocket to the moon. But before the friends
can execute their plans, it starts to snow. The dogs go to their homes
where Big Dog takes a bath, and Little Dog puts on his boots and goes
outside.
But Little Dog falls and is buried in snow. Will Big Dog hear Little
Dog's plaintive woofs and come to the rescue? Yes! Because friends help
friends. And friends don't have to go to the moon to have fun. They can
just hang out and enjoy ice cream together.
For early-to-mid first grade readers, Level G books feature more
complex storylines than prior levels, and a wider variety of structure
and punctuation. Illustrations offer support for decoding the more
challenging vocabulary words introduced.
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 with parents, teachers, or on their own!
