Bookroo's summary

Aboard the S.S. Cliff, First Mate Foxy discovers a puzzling fact: lemmings don't jump off cliffs. Yet, his crew of lemmings keeps leaping into the icy waters. With Captain PB's help, Foxy realizes the lemmings can't read. As Foxy attempts to teach Jumper, Me Too, and Ditto to read, he faces a race against time to prevent more chilly rescues. Can Foxy succeed in his mission and finally enjoy his book in peace? Dive into this Arctic adventure where reading becomes a life-saving skill!

From the publisher

The team behind the New York Times bestselling Wolfie the Bunny and Horrible Bear! is back with with new Arctic characters in this hilarious learning-to-read adventure! Aboard the S.S. Cliff, First Mate Foxy reads an interesting fact: “Lemmings don’t jump off cliffs.” But Foxy can’t get the lemmings on the Cliff to read his book, too. They’re too busy jumping off. After a chilly third rescue, exasperated Foxy and grumbly polar bear Captain PB realize their naughty nautical crew isn’t being stubborn: The lemmings (Jumper, Me Too, and Ditto) can’t read. And until Foxy patiently teaches his lemmings to read the book, he can’t return to reading it, either!
