In this Level Three I Can Read, Mr. Putter and his cat are dragged--quite literally--into the chaotic, but sometimes charmingly clever, world of dogs.
Mr. Putter and Tabby live next door to Mrs. Teaberry and her dog, Zeke. When Mr. Putter volunteers to temporarily take Zeke on his daily walks as a favor to his neighbor, he and Tabby discover that keeping company with a dog, especially one as energetic as Zeke, isn't quite their speed.
This Level 3 I Can Read! is written for independent readers and includes challenging words and more complex themes and stories.
