Arthur's Prize Readers

Arthur can read and his sister,Violet, can't-or so Arthur says.Arthur loves to read his Super Chimp Comic books and violet tries to read them too. One day as Arthur was reading his comic books he found the word "Prize". Arthur read: "Dinner for two with King kong if you sail the most comic books!" Later on in the story Violet picked one of Arthur's comic books up out of the mudd. She looked down at the word "Prize" and read: "Dinner fo two and a free picture of King Kong if you sale the most comic books!" At the end Violet went home so she could win her first grade reading contest! Those who have read the most books get's free ice-cream sodas for two! When Violet won she let Arthur be the second person to share her prize with!

A great Arthur Book!

I loved this book because I like the idea that Arthur is trying to win a contest and his sisters trying to win a reading prize. I don't think she would learn those long words that fast. A 5 star book.
