Simons storytelling takes him all the way to the top of a mountain in this ninth book in The Not-So-Tiny Tales of Simon Seahorse chapter book series.
Simon has always loved a good story, but hes never heard one quite like Sir Sheldons Mount Aquarius ascent. After his dad tells him the tale, Simon cant wait to share it with his friendswith some embellishment, of course. But Simon gets so carried away he ends up announcing his own plans to climb the mountain! Simon immediately regrets the bold claim, but his friends are so excited for him, he cant back down. Is Simon really about to face Mount Aquarius
With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, The Not-so-Tiny Tales of Simon Seahorse chapter books are perfect for emerging readers.
Cora Reef has been telling tales for as long she can remember. She might not have grown up in a large family like Simons, but her big imagination has always kept her company. Cora lives near Boston, Massachusetts, with her family, where she is never far from the ocean.
