Arthur's Eyes: An Arthur Adventure (Arthur Adventure Series) 12 reviews Marc Brown
Little, Brown Young Readers, 1986
New Glasses
+ A fan of the original artwork... + Great book
I read Arthur's Eyes. I think you should read this book because there is a funny surprise in the middle of the book. In this book, Arthur gets glasses. My favorite part is when he tries on glasses. This part was funny because some of the glasses looked funny on Arthur. I liked this book.

Chipmunk Song (Lodestar Unicorn Paperback) 2 reviews Joanne Ryder
Puffin, 1992
A wonderful book to read to children, or to yourself.
+ Amazing Illustrations of a Wonderful Concept
Chipmunk Song provides children with a chipmunk's eye view of the world outdoors, with colorful, creative, and detailed illustrations that can stand on their own. But with the subtly evocative text to go with them, the book is as fascinating to read to children, as it is to the children ...

The Big Balloon Race (I Can Read Book 3) 3 reviews Eleanor Coerr
HarperTrophy, 1992
This is a true story for balloon lovers!
+ Exciting plot + MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW
Do you like balloons? If so, this is the book for you. The story is true and took place in 1882. I loved it. There were four characters: Carlotta, Ariel, Bernard, and Mr. Myers. I think kids and their friends should read this book. It did take a long time to read, but it was good.

Another great Everett Anderson story
