Zilbo's Forest: How to Bite the Sun - Hardcover

by Summer Benton (Author), Summer Benton (Illustrator)

Kids will fall in love with the next book set in Zilbo's Forest, a humorous, heartfelt, and vibrantly illustrated Level 2 I Can Read Comic series, geared toward kids who can read on their own, but still need a little help sometimes.

Zilbo gets angry. . .a lot.

The only thing that makes him feel better is biting the cause of this feeling, no matter what it is--a chair, a TV, a clock. One day, the sun's heat makes Zilbo angry, but try as he might, he can't figure out how to bite it. After some creative thinking and help from friends, Zilbo discovers that maybe biting isn't the only thing that makes his overwhelming feelings go away.

With a light touch and a lot of honesty, up-and-coming cartoonist Summer Benton's Zilbo's Forest: How to Bite the Sun encourages visual literacy while demonstrating the power of friendship for our littlest readers.

This Level 2 I Can Read Comic is:

• EXPERT-VETTED: The I Can Read Comics program was made in consultation with educators and librarians.
