Overview

Jeet, his puppy Fudge, and their Dad are at the local waterpark to volunteer for the animal shelter adoption event. After they are done helping, it’s time for some rides, including THE ULTIMATE waterslide. Woo hoo!!! But before they’re able to take their turn, they’ll need to learn the Sikh values of patience, compassion, and self-control!

Kids and adults alike will delight in this level 2 emerging reader, the second in a series about a young Sikh boy, his “yummy” sidekick puppy, and their adventures in volunteerism and play.

This title is leveled using both the Lexile and Fountas & Pinnell reading level standards.
