In a world of oblivious, inept adults, Madeline is lucky she has Carl. These books are funny, and full of visual subtlety that young children will enjoy. They are in on the joke. Carl is a good friend and a good pet.
Carl goes to Daycare, features Carl and his young master as they attend a day at daycare. In this comical story, the daycare teacher accidentally gets locked out of the classroom and its up to Carl to keep the children and the classroom together! This story features colorful illustrations along with little bubbles that reveal a glimpse of what is coming up next in the story. This book is notable because it features very little text (maybe 2 sentences) and the story is strictly told through the illustrations which makes it an easy book to read for young readers and relies on the their imagination.
Mrs. Manning gets locked out, so Carl's on duty for daycare activities today- good thing the schedule's written on the wall and Carl's excellent at following instruction! Really loved seeing Mrs. Manning in the background trying various things lol
Another of the day care borrowed books.
