Mr. Putter and Tabby Spill the Beans
by: Cynthia Rylant and Arthur Howard
Age: 2-3rd grade

This book is one of man in a short chapterbook series that would be great for readers just graduating to chapter books. Each chapter is only about 2 pages long with limited text that would help children transition into more difficult reads. The book keeps the child engaged by not allowing for too many details to be leaked about what is going to happen at the end of the story. The book is centered around a cooking class that Mr. Putter takes with his friend and the exciting things that happen when they decide to bring their dog and cat to class with them. It is a funny story that will make the reader want to pick up another Mr. Putter book and find out more about his adventures.
