Arthur Writes a Story: An Arthur Adventure - Marc Brown
When Mr. Ratburn gives a creative writing assignment to the class, Arthur wonders what makes a good story. When D.W. yawns through Arthur's first tale, he decides he needs to look a some new angles. With each new angle, Arthur's story takes one more hilarious step further from his original idea--but is the end result really the tale Arthur wants to tell? Full-color illustrations. 7 1/2 10. The class homework assignment is to write a story, and everyone seems to be writing about something interesting...except Arthur. Will he find something he cares to write about or will his story be a big mess?
