Small words, big feelings!

Each book includes two stories, and each stand-alone tale features a hilarious and relatable friendship story, featuring Ebb (stubborn lover of rocks) and Flo (expert in helping Ebb out of scrapes). Written and illustrated by wife-and-husband team Laura and Philip Bunting; picture book creators who want to bring fun and laughter to reading as a family.

Woven into these stories are decodable phonetic words, common tricky words and high-frequency words . . . and lots of adventure! Learn to read! Love to read!

Oopsy Daisy
When Ebb squashes Flo’s flowers, Flo feels sad. And, maybe, a little bit mad.

I Want That One
Ebb wants a yumball. There are lots of green ones, but Ebb is set on purple. How can Flo help her friend see that all yumballs are yum?
