Arthur's Nose (An Arthur Adventure) Paperback – May 30, 1986

My granddaughter loved it

I love the Arthur books!

This new edition of Arthur's Nose is as wonderful as the original, but now it's even more useful to teachers! In the front of the book, Marc Brown has included pages from his original manuscript and shown how he had to edit and revise things. What a great motivator for young writers learning that revision and editing are a part of writing. There is also a gallery of photographs from Marc's own family and Arthur's life over the years. An additional page of fun facts and all of the incarnations of Arthur's nose over the years, as well as a letter to readers, complete the additional pages of this anniversary edition.Just like Peanuts characters, and others with whom we, or our children, grew up, Arthur's looks have changed over the years. What a great classroom discussion these changes could prompt! I could envision this discussion taking place, with more mature reasoning, from first to sixth grade, and I wouldn't hesitate to use the book as a writing springboard in those same grade levels.

Loved that they had this out of print book available. It was, as promised, in excellent condition. Would certainly recommend these folks.

My boyfriend and I are big fans of Arthur, so bought this book for us to read together and for us to read our future children!

Having searched unsucessfully for this book in local stores, I turned to Amazon. Just as promised, accurately described, the book arrived in perfect condition in only a few days! Just in time to fulfill the wishes of an Arthur admirer! Thank you.

This book is wonderful! It is one of my favorite Marc Brown books , simply because it is the first one.

Bought this book for a student of mine with autism as he is a huge Arthur fan. I was so hesitant to give it to him because of the awful damage. I did however, and it was just too damaged and worn for him to get past. The description did not list the item as extremely worn and damaged with torn pages, held together by tape, covering words.
