When you have a child who is at that stage where they are ready to read chapter books, this series might be a good one to start with. It is still easy to read, it doesn’t have too many words per page, it has colored pictures, but most importantly….it has CHAPTERS!!! They always feel so accomplished when they can say they’ve read a book with chapters. It’s also a good pick because there are a lot of Henry and Mudge books and if you can get those young readers started on a series they will read and read and read until they’ve read every book in the series.
If you are wondering who Henry and Mudge are, they are a boy and his big loving dog who are also best of friends.
