 * Marvin Redpost //Kidnapped At Birth//** by Louis Sachar--Sachar is one of my all time favorite authors for children. He makes me laugh, cry, and go on all kinds of journeys. The Marvin Redpost books are part of a series. This one in particular I like because poor Marvin convinces himself that he was kidnapped and that his parents aren't his real parents. He is a third grade boy who goes on all sorts of funny adventures. If you've ever wondered if your parents aren't your real parents or if you like to laugh, this book is for you!




 * Mrs. Wishy-Washy** by Joy Cowley--Maybe I loved book because of the cow. Or maybe I loved it because it is like so many things in life--while we work so hard to get something done, like Mrs. Wishy-Washy, we will have to start over and do it all again! This story makes me laugh and it is sure to make kids laugh too! (Level E)




 * A Zoo for Mister Muster** by Arnold Lobel--This was one of my all time favorite, favorite, favorite books as a child. I read it over and over and over again. This is the story about a man who loves all the zoo animals and they love him back. It is funny and sweet. It's a must read for any child--especially the imaginative and sensitive kind!
