Arthur and the Dog Show

by Marc Brown



      The new 8x8 format for these super short books are sure to create Arthur fans from even the youngest readers. Arthur knows his dog Pal is the best dog in the world, and the upcoming dog show is a great way to prove it. Arthur does his part - practicing with Pal every day - now is Pal up to the challenge? Naturally, nothing ever goes exactly as planned in Arthur's world, but we're sure to see a happy ending just the same. Shortly after this book came in the mail, my 6-year-old daughter vanished with it, to read to her bunny - then to her stuffed animals - then just to herself. With the short simple text and lively illustrations, it's a great book for early readers to share.
