Goalie tryouts -- Practice and Poop -- The Wildcat's goalie.
Spin-off series from Fran Manushkin's popular Katie Woo series. Readers will relate to Pedro's interests, experiences and happy-go-lucky personality. Three-chapter structure builds confidence, as beginning readers are excited to be reading a chapter book.
Fran Manushkin is the author of many popular picture books,
including How Mama Brought the Spring; Baby, Come Out!; Latkes and
Applesauce: A Hanukkah Story; and The Tushy Book. There is a real
Katie Woo — she's Fran's great-niece — but she never gets in half
the trouble of the Katie Woo in the books. Fran writes on her
beloved MacBook in New York City. Tammie Lyon, the illustrator of
the Katie Woo and Pedro series says that these characters are two
of her favorites.
Tammie has illustrated numerous books for children, creating work
for Disney, Scholastic, Simon and Schuster, Penguin, HarperCollins
and Amazon Publishing to name a few.
She has turned to writing and illustrating her own titles as well.
Her first Picture Book Olive and Snowflake was released to starred
reviews from Kirkus and School Library Journal.
Tammie lives in Cincinnati, Ohio with her husband Lee and two dogs,
Amos and Artie. She spends her days writing and drawing in her home
studio in the woods surrounded by wildlife and of course, two
mostly always sleeping dogs.
