In two standalone early chapter books, Pedro and friends Katie and JoJo take karate lessons (Ninja); and, using paper cups, their class experiments with construction (Tower). Expressive full-color illustrations and wide leading will aid beginning readers, who should readily connect to Pedro's spunk and personality. Jokes, writing prompts, and discussion questions are appended. Also available in Spanish. Glos.

Pedro's class is building is tower out of paper cups to see who can build the tallest tower. Pedro loves to build, but he's got a big problem. Troublemaker Roddy is on his team. Can Pedro and Roddy learn to work together? A glossary and critical thinking questions make this a great title for libraries, while a collection of jokes adds to the fun.
