The classic format of “Dick and Jane” readers is given a charmingly inventive plot in See Pip Point. The little mouse Pip longs for Otto the robot’s balloon. “See Otto share.” But it’s a big balloon for such a little mouse, and soon Pip is sailing off into the sky. “See Pip go up. See Pip go way up.” An encounter with Zee the bee and a fast-acting Otto save the day in this very easy and entertaining beginning reader. The digital pen-and-ink illustrations have clean, simple lines that effectively convey both personalities and emotions of the creature characters. (Ages 4–6)
