A Texas Bluebonnet Book
When a small mammal with an oversized ego tries to take over the zoo, just leave it to the big-hearted peacock Plum to save the day! From award-winning author Matt Phelan, Leave It to Plum! is a highly illustrated young middle grade novel perfect for reluctant readers and animal lovers everywhere.
Every day the peacocks are allowed to wander freely among Athensville Zoo's visitors, delighting and guiding kids and grown-ups alike. The peacocks are very proud of their responsibility; none so much as kind, curious Plum.
But Itch the ningbing--a type of very small marsupial--doesn't understand why those birdbrains should get so much freedom while he's all cooped up. So he plots and plots, sure that he will escape and become the zoo ambassador!
Each book in the Leave It to Plum series features:
- Lively black-and-white illustrations by the author on almost every page.
- Short, humorous chapters ideal for reading aloud and for reluctant readers.
- Social and emotional learning competencies appropriate for young middle grade readers.
- Engaging high-interest, low reading level stories to develop literacy skills and nurture a love of reading.
Leave It to Plum! is the first book in a 5-book series about a young peacock with a big heart and the busy zoo he lives in. Just right for newly independent readers, these fun and funny adventures tackle relatable emotional themes such as cooperation and being a good friend. Perfect for fans of the Princess in Black and the Mercy Watson series.
