Drop It, Rocket! by Tad Hills

Rocket, the beloved dog from the New York Times bestselling picture books How Rocket Learned to Read and Rocket Writes a Story, is back in a Step 1 leveled reader.

Rocket is ready to find new words for his word tree with his teacher, the little yellow bird. He finds a leaf, a hat, and a star . . . but when he finds a red boot, he doesn't want to let go. What will make Rocket drop it?

With predictable patterns, simple words, lots of repetition, and bright, colorful illustrations, this Rocket book will charm young readers--and they can read it all by themselves!

Step 1 Readers feature big type and easy words. Rhymes and rhythmic text paired with picture clues help children decode the story. For children who know the alphabet and are eager to begin reading.

Tad Hills is the author and illustrator of the New York Times bestselling picture books How Rocket Learned to Read; Rocket Writes a Tale; R Is for Rocket; Duck & Goose; Duck, Duck, Goose; Duck & Goose Go to the Beach; and Duck & Goose, Honk! Hills' work was described by the Boston Globe as delightful, witty, simple, and surprising, and he was named a master of the light comic touch. Tad, his wife, two children, and his real-life dog, Rocket, who has yet to learn to read, reside in Brooklyn, New York. Tad Hills can be found online at tadhills.com and on Twitter as @tadhills.
