Animal tales
LULU AND THE DUCK IN THE POND by Hilary McKay. Albert Whitman, 2012.
Lulu loves animals of all shapes and kinds. How could anyone resist them? On a field trip to the park, Lulu rescues a duck egg. When it begins to hatch at school, Lulu fears she can be in a world of trouble: her teacher definitely does not want a duck in class. What will she do? <634>
PETE AND GABBY THE BEARS GO TO TOWN by Kay Winters with illustrations by Katherine Kirkland. Albert Whitman, 2012.
Gabby and Pete, two bear cubs, decide to head into town to see what adventures they can find. They are not quite prepared for the reactions of people seeing them outside of the park. <635>
