Orris and Timble The Beginning #1 by Kate DiCamillo illustrated by Carmen Mok*

 Orris, the rat, lives in a hole in an abandoned barn. One night he hears a screech. An owl is caught in a mousetrap nailed to the floor. Should he help an enemy? A sweet book about being noble and about friendship. I love the inclusion of Aesop's Fable.

Simple words, short chapters with full-page illustrations-perfect for transitional readers who need to build stamina  and to gain confidence.

*Highly recommend.

-Borrowed from the library.
