The Big Jump and Other Stories by Benjamin Elkin illustrated by Katherine Evans*

 I recently listened to a podcast featuring author Gary Schmidt. He mentioned liking these stories as a struggling reader. 

In the kingdom where Ben lives, only the king may own dogs. The king challenges Ben to a feat. If he achieves it, he may keep a dog. The other stories feature Ben, his dog, and the king. Very enjoyable stories for kids who have learned to read but need more practice and more stamina building.

*Highly recommend.
