"It started the summer of 2002, when the Springfield librarian,
Molly McGrew, by mistake drove her bookmobile into the zoo."
In this rollicking rhymed story, Molly introduces birds and beasts
to this new something called reading. She finds the perfect book
for every animal--tall books for giraffes, tiny ones for crickets.
"She even found waterproof books for the otter, who never went
swimming without Harry Potter." In no time at all, Molly has them
"forsaking their niches, their nests, and their nooks," going
"wild, simply wild, about wonderful books." Judy Sierra's funny
animal tale coupled with Marc Brown's lush, fanciful paintings will
have the same effect on young Homo sapiens. Altogether, it's more
fun than a barrel of monkeys
Arthur is delighted when he finally gets his new puppy, Pal, but Pal's "accidents" in the house and all-night barking make life miserable for the entire family, until Arthur comes up with a solution.
A reluctant trick-or-treater at first, Arthur discovers that Halloween isn't really so frightening after all.
Arthur finds his role as director of the Thanksgiving play a difficult one, especially since no one will agree to play the turkey.
An excellent resource for children when they try to grasp the
concept of death and understand grieving, recommended for children
who have faced or are facing loss, but also for any child even
before an urgent need presents itself. Presented in a respectful
and unthreatening manner, this book will prove immensely valuable
for children and their familes.
Now available in a special edition with full-color stickers. In Arthur Goes to Camp, Arthur and his friends try to survive bad food, poison ivy, and spooky nighttime noises at camp. This book now includes a full page of assorted stickers, featuring Arthur and his family and friends, which Arthur fans can collect, share with friends, or use to create their own Arthur Adventures.
During a class visit to the museum, Arthur needs to make a quick
visit to the boys' lavatory. But a wrong turn leads him into a
diorama of life-size models of Pilgrims celebrating the first
Thanksgiving . . . just as Mr. Ratburn and his class are about to
study it. Will Arthur be in big trouble?
When Arthur wins a trip to Washington, D.C., for his essay, "How I Can Help Make America Great," he learns a lot about the White House, but frets about forgetting his speech in front of the President.
Now available in a special edition with full-color stickers. Take off with Arthur, D.W., Mom, Dad, and a carful of the luggage in Arthur's Family Vacation.

and a guessing element just easy enough for preschoolers to
anticipate. Brown's artwork is bright, textured, and joyful, a
collage of simple shapes for kids to find and name. Full color.
Third-grader Arthur is amazed when he is chosen to be in the school spellathon.
A lively new jacket by Marc Brown puts a fresh face on one of the first--and widely considered the best--poetry anthologies for preschoolers. "No one better recognizes the essence of the child-poetry connection than poet and anthologist Jack Prelutsky," writes Jim Trelease, author of The Read-Aloud Handbook, in his introduction to this child-friendly collection of more than 200 poems by well-known contemporary poets. Each poem in this 112 page book is "exuberantly illustrated," wrote The New York Times Book Review. With subjects ranging from waking up to going to bed and everything in between, here is "a joyous anthology that [is] bound to develop an appreciation for poetry at a very young age."--School Library Journal
The class homework assignment is to write a story, and everyone
seems to be writing about something interesting...except Arthur.
Francine's story is funny, so Arthur adds some humour. Buster
writes science fiction, so Arthur decides his story should take
place on the moon. The Brain says research is important, so Arthur
heads to the library. But by the time he's finished, Arthur's story
is a mess! Arthur learns that maybe it's best to write about
something that he cares about - like his dog, Pal!
