Oink and Pearl

Kay Chorao
(Puffin Books)
978-0140318012, RRP £2.99, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "Oink and Pearl (I Can Read)" on Amazon

Four delightful episodes for novice readers: little brothers can be very irritating, as least so Pearl thinks; but when Pearl is on the receiving end of unkindness from older children then it is Oink who provides the comfort she needs. Then, in turn, it is Pearl who makes the right noises when a visiting aunt is just too overpowering for young Oink to stand. Another winner in the I Can Read series.
