Hi! I'm Katie Woo. My teacher Miss Winkle asked us to write a thank you letter to a special classroom visitor. Well, once I got started writing letters, I didn't want to stop. From the greeting to the signature, writing letters is the best. Write your own and brighten someone's day. I'll show you how!

Katie Woo wanted to help her mom, so she started dinner on her own. She was enjoying her time in the kitchen when she heard a strange noise. Was there a ghost cooking up something too?

Katie is so excited when her name is drawn to take the class pet, Binky, home for the weekend. Things start off great, and Katie takes good care of Binky. But when she loses him, she dreads telling her teacher and classmates.

Katie Woo loves camping with Pedro and JoJo. Cooking with a campfire and sleeping under the stars is fun! But when, it gets dark and the shadows come out, camping can get a little scary.

Collects twenty-five stories on varying subjects that are focused on encouraging early readers.

Pedro is obsessed with monster trucks. He plays with his toy truck, writes about them at school, and even gets to go to a rally with his friends. He simply can't stop thinking about them! But can his love of monster trucks help him stop the monsters in his dreams? In the back matter, a glossary and discussion questions round out the learning and a collection of jokes rounds out the fun!

Pedro and his dad are off on an adventure in the woods. Dad can't wait to show Pedro how to survive in the wild. But Pedro is a lot better at climbing rocks, tracking animals, and identifying plants than his dad is. Does Pedro even need his dad out in the woods?

It's winter festival time! There are games, a snowman contest, skating, and of course, treats. But the festival isn't much fun for Pedro. His snow dog is a flop, and he falls flat on the ice. Will Pedro keep his cool and find a way to have fun?

After watching a ninja cartoon, Pedro dreams of being a ninja himself. Luckily, his dad gets him karate lessons. With hard work and a little practice, maybe Pedro can become ninja star, just like the ones he sees in the movies! A glossary and reading questions make this title a black-belt level book.

A school assignment has Pedro collecting bugs, bugs, and more bugs! But what happens when his brother Paco lets them all out? This easy-to-read chapter book is a fun addition for units on insects and includes a glossary, discussion questions, and writing prompts.
