About this ebook

Star Chapter Books are the perfect bridge for kids moving beyond beginning readers but not yet ready for longer chapter books. With short chapters, bold two-color illustrations, and fast-paced, funny stories, these confidence-building books make reading fun and rewarding.

Zany pals Bigfoot and Dodo look for a job in this wacky and wild first book in the series!

Meet Bigfoot, a real-live bigfoot! Meet Dodo, a real-live dodo bird. That’s right—two creatures thought not to exist!

But these two kooky characters make for a daffy and delightful duo who discover the only way to feed their endless love of cupcakes is to find gainful employment, a.k.a. a job! Who will ever hire this hairbrained pair?

Each Star Chapter Book is 112 pages long, divided into six to eight short chapters with illustrated panels on every page to keep kids engaged from start to finish. This highly visual early chapter book format supports the transition from leveled readers to chapter books, making Star Chapter Books a perfect fit for independent reading, classroom libraries, or shared story time.
