In this third collection of Big Words, Small Stories, meet Davey and his anthropomorphic sidekick Abigail for the first time and join them on eight adventures that introduce them to some delightful new words – from rambunctious chipmunks, to flabbergasting feats, to precarious machines! Including:– Sandy Paws: Davey and his family are going to the beach. Abigail doesn't want to go, but reluctantly agrees. But she's lollygagging as she gets ready.– Wildlife Strike: Davey wants a photo of a butterfly, but with every try, rambunctious chipmunks get in the way.– Cockatiel Choir: Davey and Abigail listen to a cacophony of cockatiels.– Stick at It: Davey wants to make an Eiffel Tower from popsicle sticks, but he will need perseverance.– Flickityball: Davey audaciously challenges Al to a Flickityball game.– World Record Wipeout: Davey flabbergasts everyone as he tries to set a world record.– Squeaky's Return: Abigail becomes sentimental over her old toy Squeaky.– Balancing Act: When Davey gets too much cereal, he builds a precarious machine to get just the right amount.
