Zooni Tales: A Friend Till the End

Loads of laughs and silly gaffes fill this charming early reader graphic novel in rhyme, from a Theodor Seuss Geisel Honoree.

Dog Man meets Dr. Seuss in this fabulously furry young graphic novel that pairs rollicking rhyme with an irresistible pooch.

A bee in spring, a ship in space,
A car about to win a race . . . 
A stinky sock, a spider crew, 
A dog who wants to read with you!


Kid friendly wordplay makes phonics fun, while charming illustrations follow Zooni through colorful mishaps and dog naps. Never fear! Zooni’s pals are always near. These loyal animal friends stick together through every adventure—from cheese quests to road tests.

Told in three full-length stories and two mini comics, tails will be wagging for this fuzzy, four-legged star. A perfect fit for read alouds and newly independent readers.
