Review
Rocket the spotted puppy is following a pink butterfly up the hill, around the pond and to the edge of the woods. After Rocket identifies that he is scared and wants to be as brave as the butterfly, he follows it into the forest and doesn't feel scared anymore. This easy reader is written for the young new reader since the text is in a large font with a sentence or two per page. The large amount of white space and matching of text description to illustrative action is perfect for the beginner reader. There are a few dialogue quotes for variety. Dog lovers will enjoy this adventure with Rocket.
Overall Book Score: good
