Peg + Cat: Peg Up a Tree: A Level 1 Reader
What's This Book About
What goes up must come down – somehow – as Peg gets stuck high in a tree and Cat and Ramone try to come to the rescue. Peg has a BIG PROBLEM. She is up in a tree with her yo-yo and can’t get down! Luckily, Cat is down below and eager to help. He finds two long poles and some short pieces of wood and ties them all together. But when his makeshift ladder sways and falls, Peg has to pull Cat up, and now they have an even bigger problem. Can their friend Ramone make the ladder’s vertical sides go up and down and the horizontal steps go straight across so they can get down safely? Could Peg’s yo-yo skills come in handy after all?
