Arthur must report to the principal's office first thing tomorrow morning for telling Mr. Ratburn his dog ate his homework. That night, Arthur dreams about the weird town of Pickletown and its peculiar pickle citizens. He is chased by the pickle police, jailed by Judge Picklepuss, and must eat everything from pickle flakes and pickle shakes to pickle cakes. Arthur learns to never tell a fib again in this cautionary Step into ReadingĀ® Sticker Book."
I purchased this book for a child's 4th birthday. I was going by the age estimate provided in the item description, which says Ages 4-8. Well, the book is actually for Grades 1-3, which obviously does not include 4 year olds. The content is appropriate, but there are not many 4 year olds who will be able to read any of this book on their own. So if you want a book that your young child can start reading on their own, look elsewhere.
Pickles, stickers and reading fun

This is a great book for teaching reading. Arthur is a favored character in our house , and the peel and place stickers really help little ones with the concepts of learning to read. It also has a whole sticker sheet that kids can illustrate their own story with. Marc Brown, through Arthur, can always view the world through a child's eyes, which helps parents to remember that things can seem alot different down there! I highly recommend this and all Arthur/D.W. books!
