Pee-Wee's Tale

by Johanna Hurwitz
F HUR

This cute story can be enjoyed by both boys and girls.  If you are a boy, just ignore the pink book that Pee Wee the guinea pig is holding.  He is a boy guinea pig.  Pee Wee is a pet shop guinea pig in New York City.  He learned to read while still in the store by studying the newspapers lining his cage.  After he is adopted by a family and a boy named Robbie, an adult decides to let him loose in Central Park.  Central Park is a very big park in the middle of New York City.  Pee Wee is a pet store animal and has no idea how to survive in the wild, even if it is the wild in the middle of a big city.  Luckily, Pee Wee makes friends with a squirrel named Lexi who helps him learn all he needs to know in order to survive living outside with no food--and lots of other, bigger wild animals!

This story is the first in a series of four about Pee Wee's new life in Central Park.
