It’s springtime on the ranch. Cowgirl Kate is excited about the arrival of all the baby animals: a newborn calf, a frisky puppy, and a nest of little barn owls. Her best friend Cocoa the horse is not so excited. Babies are a lot of work! But they are also sweet, as Cocoa and beginning readers will discover in this delightful addition to Green Light Readers. Short sentences and simple dialogue keep newly independent readers engaged and confident.
Erica Silverman is the author of many picture books and early readers, including the perennial preschool favorite Big Pumpkin, the award winning Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa series and the recently released, Jack (Not Jackie). Childhood visits to the library fed her lifelong passion for books, reading and writing. When she is not writing, she is working as a librarian. When she is not at the library, she is writing. Or reading. Or playing with her dog and cats. And eating chocolate.
Betsy Lewin has illustrated many successful books for young readers, including Click Clack Moo, for which she won a Caldecott Honor Medal. She lives in Brooklyn, New York.
