One morning Grasshopper finds a lovely road to follow. Off he goes on his journey, past plenty of busy characters. They wonder why Grasshopper isn’t as busy as they are. But Grasshopper—well, he is happy just walking down the road. Arnold Lobel's beloved Level 2 I Can Read classic was created for kids who read on their own but still need a little help.
