A little look inside.
Rain keeps John and Julia indoors, so they build a town for two paper puppies. From aprons to zigzags, an alphabet of making brings a purple house, a paint-spill lake and a bridge that needs a little repair.
Read the pictures and words together, or let the cast tell the story while you turn the pages.
From the book
Shall we turn the page?
Good to know.
Can we read without narration?
Yes. Turn the pages and read the words together. Narration is optional and begins only when you press play.
What can we download?
Read, listen and keep the story. Find the PDF, EPUB and complete read-aloud under Downloads for grown-ups at the end of the reader.
How should we choose a story?
Try the pictures, the opening and the voices. Pointing, listening, joining a sound or talking about a picture are all ways to share it. Choose the pace and level of help that suit your child.
For parents: story notes & sources
Play another little adventure
Give a toy a home, make a pretend road, or answer for the puppies with John. Enjoy the wrong turns and small repairs together.
A little letter looking
Each letter has a big form and a little form, such as Aa. Name them when your child is interested. The parking X is a mark in the story. The puppies’ town grows from cardboard, paint and the children’s make-believe.
