About the book
This book was created to be shared with a buddy. Reading with another makes the experience much more fun. Sharing a book together results in unspeakable happiness and success for both parties. Mmmmm.... yes, it makes it a reading party!
An adorable aardvark and his friend mouse team up to to tackle the short sentences and repetitive words. Through dialogue they achieve reading confidence and a special friendship bond. Together they inspire each other as the kindergarten and first-grade words are strung together in simple sentences that they both can manoeuvre.
Kids will feel very proud of themselves as these words are mastered and they can exclaim, " I can read!"

She's been entertaining and educating children her entire life. While raising her sons, she started writing in the magazine market. Her first national publication was in Jack and Jill magazine. She still remembers her joy as she screamed around the kitchen. She continued writing in the magazine market, then books in the education and Christian markets.

She also enjoys creating holiday crafts, decorations, gifts, and art/photography.
About the illustrator
Rachael Brunson must have been born with a crayon in her hand because, at just 22 years of age, she already has illustrated two soon-to-be-published books, with at least three more in the works.
Brunson, who graduated from Peninsula High School in 2014, is a freelance artist and graphic designer but her real love is illustrating children’s books.
As a student at PHS she “took every art class they offered. And we had a couple of really good art teachers there,” she said.
She went on to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree from Northwest College of Art & Design in Poulsbo where she focused on illustration and graphic design.
