FOR USE IN SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES ONLY. Jessie's dog Bear is missing! How can she find him? Luckily, in LEGO CITY, there are lots of friends who will help.
In this Lego City Adventure you almost have it all - Police, City Workers, and an Ambulance. It is the story of Jessie and her dog Bear. Bear walks Jessie to and from school every day. Then one day he is not there after school. Jessie runs home and he is not there. So she starts to look for him. Just as it starts to rain, she finds him stuck under a gate in the park. She finds a police officer to help her, and he calls in more officers. They call in the city workers and finally they get the dog free.
The Leveled readers are great books for young children. There are hundreds of titles in these formats, even across different publishers. What makes this particular series, The Lego City Adventures, so good is that little boys will be attracted to them because of the format and styles of both the stories and artwork. I can see young boys trying to make with Lego the scenes to act out from the books. As a Level 1 reader geared for Kindergarten to Grade 1, this book is intended to help with sight, word recognition, sounding out simple words and sentences. The book is fun, bright, and colorful and will keep a small child's attention.
Simple story. Main attraction is the Lego themed pictures :)
Miss 5 and I like to explore different books and authors at the library, sometimes around particular topics or themes. We try to get different ones out every week or so; it's fun for both of us to have the variety and to look at a mix of new & favourite authors.
We ordered a lot of these books from the series for our library's collection. I am slightly disappointed in them. I thought the illustrations would be made of real legos, not computer graphics. The story lines are just so so. I wish the illustrators had been more creative and thoughtful. The great thing about legos is your taking solid shapes and building structures with them. It is a form of architectural art that kids really love. However these are simple computer graphics and the story lines are simplistic and unimpressive.
Jessie's dog, Bear, goes missing. Where is he? Jessie needs help to rescue him. Simple story. My son loves LEGOs, so we have a lot of these books. This one's not our favorite, but still a win since it's LEGO.
