Super Book: Peedie

By

Peedie
By Olivier Dunrea
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2004. Easy Reader.

Peedie is a small yellow gosling who loves to wear his lucky red baseball cap everywhere he goes--until until one day he misplaces it and has to search for it. This easy reader is a perfect book for a beginner reader with its word repetition and relatable storyline. Peedie is just as adorable as his friend Gossie, another gosling written about by this same author.
