Mr. Putter & Tabby Clear the Decks
K-Gr 2–Rylant's adorable characters are bored, so Mr. Potter's neighbor Mrs. Teaberry suggests an adventure on a sightseeing boat. The Olden Days is the perfect vessel. Mrs. Teaberry's dog, Zeke, loves it so much that he doesn't want to leave and sinks his teeth into the mast, and the captain helps them out. Howard's delightful pictures created with pencil, watercolor, and gouache add humor and panache to the story. A welcome addition to easy-reader collections.Loreli Stochaj, Franklin School, Summit, NJ© Copyright 2010.  Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
