Tugg and Teeny

(4) K-3 I Am a Reader! series. Illustrated by Christopher Denise. In three episodic chapters, Tugg (a gorilla) supports his best friend Teeny (a monkey) in her pursuits to become a musician, an artist, and a poet, respectively. Cheery jungle-themed illustrations effectively convey tone and emotion, while occasional sound effects ("squeak, squawk, screech") contribute to the somewhat cutesy text's fluidity.
