Editorial Reviews

K-Gr 2—Stew Rabbit and Opal Owl love everything about the library, and they enjoy learning about how to find, check out, and take care of books. The titles include up-to-date technology such as self-checkout, downloading e-books, and using online searches for research. Bright cartoon illustrations fill the pages opposite the texts. Glossaries provide definitions of boldfaced words found in the text and use them in sentences. For example, after defining the word, "record," readers are told, "Opal read the record to see if the book was in the library." "Tips to Remember!" in each title highlight strategies Stew and Opal use. While the stories err on the cheesy side, they do put real situations into a story context, which works for young readers.
