Gilbert, the Surfer Dude (I Can Read Book 2)
This I Can Read Book in the&#xA0;Gilbert and Friends series does its job. It&#x2019;s short, amusing, and will keep kids reading. Gilbert and family are on their way to the beach when Gilbert remembers that he forgot something&#x2014;his bathing suit. He insists on&#xA0;wearing his&#xA0;new&#xA0;trunks that say Surfer Dude, even though they&#x2019;re too big. Surfing and oversize trunks can only lead to one thing. Adults will see it coming, but new readers probably won&#x2019;t. They&#x2019;ll enjoy looking at the seaside doings in the friendly art while they sharpen their reading skills. Grades K-2. --Ilene Cooper--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
