Jack and Rick (Green Light Readers Level 1) Review

The pictures are simple. The words are simple. On the surface, the plot is, too. Still, McPhail includes an important lesson in team work, helping others and handling difficult situations.

On opposite sides of a stream, Jack the rabbit and Rick the bear want to play together. Jack has a log on his side of the stream, Rick a jump rope. Jack and Rick work together to overcome obstacles to get on the same side of the stream.

The story is nicely done in a simple first reader. It tells an interesting tale in words an early reader can handle. It's a great combination. It's even one that my 2 1/2 year-old enjoys having read to him. All in all, the book is well done.Get more detail about Jack and Rick (Green Light Readers Level 1).
