The I am Reading series is the perfect stepping stone for young readers as they move on from picture books to chapter books. 

This book has two stories. Noisy Neighbors is about accommodating and adjusting with neighbors while Just in Time is about helping one another.

By the way, the neighbors in question are quite the odd combination – George the panda, Louis the rhinoceros who also plays the trumpet and Harriet, a dog, I think, who loves to go Vroom-Vroom-Whirr on her motorbike.

Excerpt from Just in Time

The next few days seemed very long. Louis couldn't concentrate on playing his trumpet.
Harriet couldn't concentrate on fixing her bike.

George couldn't concentrate on anything at all. He thought he would burst with waiting.
