Monkeys and Dog Days

By Kate Banks and Tomek Bogacki

Max and his older brother, Pete, are getting a dog. A dog needs to be played with. That's the fun part. But a dog also needs to be fed, bathed, and walked. Max and Pete promise to share the responsibilities. But when Fudge comes to live with them, it isn't long before Pete decides that a dog is more work than he thought, and Max discovers that there are unexpected rewards for being the dependable one. With simple yet lyrical language and bright illustrations, Kate Banks and Tomek Bogacki team up to introduce Monkey Readers, a new series for beginning readers who like to monkey around.
