Ebb and Flo: Party Pooper and Cool Beans

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!

Party Pooper
When Ebb finds out there are no sweets at a party, he turns into a real party pooper.

Cool Beans
Flo does not see what is so cool about Ebb's new Cool Beans.
