In this picture book, Peg and feline sidekick Cat have opened Peg's Pizza Place, where customers can enjoy a hot, cheesy slice while listening to some jazzy tunes.

Skiing past hurdles can be a problem when you're a penguin that doesn’t know its over, under, and in between. Peg and Cat fans will race to this wacky, wintry picture book!
"One, two, three, four! We're the Penguins – watch us soar!" This sporting picture book begins with Peg and Cat preparing to watch the ski race at the Animal Winter Games at the South Pole. Suddenly they spy the Penguins zooming downhill. CRASH! Peg and Cat soon see the root of the problem: the Penguins don’t know what over, under, and in between mean! Can newly appointed Coach Peg and Assistant Coach Cat teach the Penguins in time for the competition?
Peg and Cat are in the bath. One, two friends in the bath. Seems like a great time to do some math! Readers can join old friends Peg and Cat as they engage with the concepts of counting and weight and directional terms such as under, over, and across. How many rocks will sink their boat? When Bug and Worm join the fun, how many are in the bath? Short, repetitive lines and gentle addition and subtraction will make a splash with new and early readers.
It’s a rainy day, which is good news for Peg and Cat, who can’t wait to get outside to splash in the puddles. With their rain boots, raincoats, and umbrellas, they’re all set for the puddles in the park. Peg jumps right in, but Cat isn’t so sure. Just how deep is that water, anyway? If only they had some way to measure how far down the puddles go! A clever idea from Peg might just hold the solution to Cat’s puddle problem in this engaging story, which comes with bonus stickers.
It's Eid al-Adha, a very special holiday for Yasmina and Amir, who invite their friends Peg and Cat to check it out. After they all rock out with some singing, it’s time to head to the celebration, where there’s so much food waiting! Amir explains that an important part of celebrating Eid al-Adha is dividing the meat into three equal parts, one third to be shared with someone who has less. But with all three bowls of meatballs holding different amounts, they’ve got a BIG PROBLEM! Thanks to a balancing scale, a trip to a soup kitchen, and an unexpected visit to a housebound neighbor, Peg and Cat learn all about the concept of taking from where there’s more and giving to where there’s less. Even Cat discovers how awesome giving can be. Eid Mubarak!
It’s a hot day, so what could be cooler than setting up a lemonade stand? When Peg needs some marbles to keep her special marble company, she and Cat decide to sell lemonade in exchange for ten marbles a cup. But the Teens have other ideas. “But just one cup for ten marbles?” says Mora. “I’m not made of marbles!” So Peg and Cat keep changing their sign until they hit a price — two marbles! — that has customers lining up. There’s just one problem: Peg and Cat forgot the cups! Can they barter their way back into business — or will they end up totally freaking out?
The Big Dog Problem: A Level 2 Reader
by Jennifer Oxley and Billy Aronson
Peg’s mom has given her and Cat five important letters to mail. “She says it’s because we’re growing up,” says Peg. And sure enough, the height marks on the wall show that they’re getting taller! But there’s a problem: when they get to the mailbox, they find a very big dog sitting in front of it. How can they get around or behind this scary-looking canine to mail the letters? Or could it be that they’re jumping to conclusions — and the obstacle itself might help them reach a solution?

He finds two long poles and some short pieces of wood and ties them all together. But when his makeshift ladder sways and falls, Peg has to pull Cat up, and now they have an even bigger problem. Can their friend Ramone make the ladder’s vertical sides go up and down and the horizontal steps go straight across so they can get down safely? Could Peg’s yo-yo skills come in handy after all?
