I'm Arthur, and I'm seven. In the summer, I really like staying
with my grandparents by Picket Lake, but in the winter I can get a
bit bored. This year, it was even colder and icier that normal.
Grandpa told me all about the time he won a medal in the Great
Crossing of Picket Lake. Then Cousin Eugene an idea. But
ice-skating was harder than it looked. Arthur is a seven-year-old
boy who is brilliant at being a seven-year-old-boy. When Arthur
visits his grandparents' house by the lake, more often than not, he
becomes entangled in a new adventure, which he must solve with the
help of his pet duck and useless dog - and hopefully without too
much help from eccentric Cousin Eugene. These are witty stories
full of understated humour and populated by quirky yet recognisable
characters, and narrated by Arthur who has the rational worldview
that comes exclusively from being seven-years-old. - REVIEWS OF
ARTHUR AND THE ICE RINK - "Perfect for new readers, these stories,
narrated by Arthur himself, are perfectly pitched so young readers
will readily identify with Arthur, a likeable character" -- PARENTS
IN TOUCH. "Arthur and the Ice Rink by Johanne Mercier is a short
book about seven-year-old Arthur and told by him. When he goes to
visit his grandparents, Arthur is disappointed that there is no
ice-rink, but he has reckoned without clever cousin Eugene. The
easy and funny little tale is ideal for newly fluent readers who
will enjoy both the words and the pictures" -- THE SCOTSMAN.
"Amusing, easy to follow adventures, these are very
age-appropriate, reader-friendly books...a very good series for the
target age group" -- THE SCHOOL LIBRARIAN. "A great little series
for newly independent readers. Short and simple, yet engaging and
fun, this is a perfect series for children to try to attempt on
their own. The illustrations help break the text and help set the
humorous atmosphere. Arthur is a loveable and quirky character who
will appeal to both boys and girls." -- LIBRARY MICE.
