Part of the Annie and Snowball series
Can Henry find joy in reading outside with his dog and cousin's bunny?
Annie is eager to join the Book Bugs club, but her cousin Henry prefers outdoor adventures with his dog, Mudge, and Annie's bunny, Snowball. As summer unfolds, Henry discovers the magic of reading in unexpected places—on swings, under trees, and even in them. Will this new perspective change his mind about books? As the season ends, a delightful surprise awaits: a picnic where Snowball and Mudge are invited too. Join Annie and Henry on a journey that blends the joy of reading with the wonders of the outdoors.
Annie convinces Henry to join a summer book club in this Level 2 Ready-to-Read by the Theodor Seuss Geisel Award-winning creators of Henry and Mudge. When Annie hears about the Book Bugs club at the library, she wants to join right away, but her cousin Henry isn’t so sure. He likes to do outside things with his dog, Mudge, and Annie’s bunny, Snowball. Reading is an inside thing, right? Henry is surprised to learn you can read anywhere: on the porch steps, on the swings, under the maple tree, or even in the maple tree! And after a wonderful summer of reading, Annie and Henry discover the best part is yet to come: They get to bring Snowball and Mudge to a Book Bugs picnic!
