Book Description: Celebrate the joy of friendship and the satisfaction it brings with this delightful book about two best friends. Told in rhyme with cheerful, bright illustrations, Scooter & Cupcake take young readers on a lively, fast-paced journey of friendship and camaraderie. These two inseparable piggy pals share everything: possessions and activities as well as helping in times of need. Scooter & Cupcake is a great building block for young readers.
Mary’s Review: What a cute little rhyming book. The piggy illustrations are adorable.
The story tells of two little piggies, Scooter and Cupcake, who have learned how to share everything they have with each other and how much fun it is. They love each other and wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s a great little book for teaching our young ones the joy of sharing with each other and the happiness it brings.
I recommend this book for ages 4-8.
