Kate is Great Dane and Pippin is a fawn. When Pippin's mother abandons her, Kate adopts Pippin as her own. The two share a special bond even as Pippin grows into maturity and births her own fawns. The subject is perfect for the intended audience and text gives readers enough of a challenge to grow their skills beyond the easiest of easy reader titles. Highly recommend this series for grades 1-3. Kate is Great Dane and Pippin is a fawn. When Pippin's mother abandons her, Kate adopts Pippin as her own.

easy to read/ beginning readers This is a neat easy to read with great, real photographs about an unusual friendship between a dog and a fawn. It is a very accesible story with even a little tension. This would be an awesome oversize book to use at storytime, even, because the kids would love this. Words don't flow as well as some, so it is not a "5 star." easy to read/ beginning readers This is a neat easy to read with great, real photographs about an unusual friendship between a dog and a fawn.
