This Step 2 Step into Reading Comic Reader is full of dragons, firefighting, and birthday cake! In this action-packed early reader, Elephant Joe stars as a brave firefighter with his trusty sidekick, Zebra Pete. While camping, they save a hapless dragon from a tree, then must put out a fire when he sets his birthday cake ablaze! Witty asides and clever dialogue add to the hilarity in this comical adventure from British author-illustrator David Wojtowycz. Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories, for children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.
DAVID WOJTOWYCZ has illustrated dozens of books for children, many of which he has also written-such as the myriad adventures of Elephant Joe and A Cuddle for Claude, which inspired an animated television series in England, where the books were originally published. One of David's most successful books is Rumble in the Jungle, written by Giles Andreae.
