Arthur, For the Very First Time - Patricia MacLachlan
ISBN: 0064402886
Pub: HarperTrophy (February 15, 1989)
From the big box of books.
This is targeted toward the 9-12 group. It's about a boy that gets sent to stay with his aunt and uncle over the summer. While there he encounters a chicken that only responds to french, a pregnant pig, a young girl with no parents who calls him "Mouse", and a vet called Moreover because he says it quite often.
Took me about 45 minutes to plow through. It was interesting enough, though I'm not sure what possessed me to acquire it when I was younger. My bet would be a garage sale find. I used to buy books by the box at garage sales, usually without giving the contents a second glance till I got home.
Hard to rate a children's book. I'd probably give it ***--
