Happy Honey series.
Illustrated by
Jane Chapman.
In Fall, playful kitten Honey dislikes autumn's cold wind, so her pal, caring dog Happy, shows her how to stay warm. In Christmas, Honey's attempts to help prepare for Christmas are disruptive, so Happy gets her to sit with him while he waits for Santa. Although the stories aren't very exciting, the spare prose and simple illustrations make these books good picks for new readers. [Review covers these Happy Honey titles: The Best Fall of All and Happy Christmas, Honey!.]

Happy Honey series.
Illustrated by
Jane Chapman.
Happy, a big, floppy dog, just wants to nap in Happy and Honey, and in Honey Helps, he wants to bury his bone in peace. Honey, however, is a playful kitten who tries to attract Happy's attention. Readers may have difficulty telling apart the similar names, but plentiful white space, uncluttered illustrations, and very few words assure that these mild stories will give new readers a sense of accomplishment.
