    Hi, I have posted before on this topic but I wanted to share DDs favorite books/series that are not too long and have colorful pictures (her requirements):
    Cowgirl Kate & Cocoa - Erica Silverman (about 6 books in the series, I think)
    Keeker - Hadley Higginson (about 8 books in the series)
    Amelia Bedelia - lots of books
    Minnie & Moo - Cazet (lots in the series)
    Heny & Mudge - Rylant (lots in the series)
    Annie & Snowball - Rylant (about 6 in the series)
    Mercy Watson - diCamillo (about 5 in the series)
    Mouse and Mole - Yee (a few books)

    HTH and do report back if she liked any of these!

    One other set (I couldn't tell if you were seeking beginning readers or not):
    Mrs. Piggle Wiggle books are great! Good stories and good vocab...

    I would also recommend the "Let's read and find out science" series - Level One.
