Are There Any Questions

This book is a very humerous account of a first grade field trip to the aquarium. Arnie tells his mother all about the field trip, but instead of just leaving the story at Arnie's point of view, the author expands the story using little speech bubbles to clue you in on what really happened. My personal favorite character was the Spanish-speaking Carmelo Ramirez. This book was all out funny, and I would recommend it to anyone, of any age to read.

My 4 year old daughter picked out this book on her own at thelibrary and ever since we have been fans of Denys Cazet! As a parent,I love the way the illustrations show what is going on "behind the scenes" of the story told by first-grader Arnie of his first field trip to the aquarium. My daughter especially enjoyed the character who spoke in Spanish throughout the book. Even now, months after we last read it, just mentioning some of her favorite lines (such as "squeeze a whale juiceless") can send her into gales of laughter. This is definitely one we plan to purchase for our home library. END
