<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>While Bear enjoys a day at the beach, Chipmunk, who is not a beach person, does not, suffering one mishap after another all in the interests of spending time with his good friend Bear.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Bear likes going to the beach, but Chipmunk says Not me! in this Guided Reading Level D story, perfect for beginning readers. </b> <p/>Summer is here, and Bear and Chipmunk are headed to the beach. Bear likes the sun, and the sand, and swimming. But Chipmunk doesn't. The sun is too bright, the waves are so big, and the big fish are scary when you're so small! <p/>Full of humor, Valeri Gorbachev's colorful illustrations add detail and help support understanding of the text--and they're sure to make young readers laugh, as Bear floats serenely past Chipmunk, who's stuck upside-down in a float. <p/>Why did you come? asks Bear finally, as Chipmunk tries to help collect their things. I came to be with you, replies Chipmunk. Sometimes it doesn't matter what you're doing--as long as you're with your friends! <p/>Bear and Chipmunk enjoy winter weather, too, in <i>Me Too!</i>, another I Like to Read(R) book. <br> The award-winning I Like to Read(R) series focuses on guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas and Pinnell standards. Acclaimed author-illustrators--including winners of Caldecott, Theodor Seuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors--create original, high quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read with parents, teachers, or on their own! <p/>Suitable for late kindergarten readers, <b>Level D</b> books feature wider vocabulary, longer sentences, and greater variety in sentence structure than levels A, B, and C. When Level D is mastered, follow up with Level E.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The minimal text is accessible, and the repeated refrain is perfect for pre- and emergent readers.
