Bookroo's summary
Spot dreams of joining the zoo, but he's turned away. Determined to prove his worth, Spot dazzles two young friends with his incredible spot tricks—changing colors, juggling, and more. Can Spot find his special place in the world? This lively tale invites young readers to discover the magic of individuality and the joy of reading.
From the publisher
Spot believes he deserves to be in the zoo with the other amazing animals. In this Beginner Book edited by Dr. Seuss, Spot shows two young friends all the exciting things he can do with his spots. From changing their color and juggling them to moving them onto everything around him, you won’t believe what Spot can do. Beginning readers will be delighted by Robert Lopshire’s lively tale that proves there is a special spot for everyone.
Originally created by Dr. Seuss, Beginner Books encourage children to read all by themselves, with simple words and illustrations that give clues to their meaning.
