Monti and Leo: A Newcomer in Pocketville / Sylvie Kantorovitz

Monti the Mole loves living in Pocketville – stopping by the bakery for fresh bread from Mrs. Sheep, visiting Carl at the library to get good books, and enjoying his bread and books while sitting on his favorite rock by the river. When a new animal comes to town who likes the same things, Monti doesn’t know what to do; he likes his own routines and habits and doesn’t want things to be different. Will Monti learn some new routines, or make a new friend, or both? This early chapter book is full of charming illustrations, and is great for anyone who likes stories about community and friendship. For newly independent readers ages 6 and up.
