The Carousel Ride

32 pp. | Children's Press | September, 1998 | Library ISBN 0-516-20967-1 $$17.00
(4) K-3 Rookie Reader series. Illustrated by Patrick Girouard. Mara's brother claims that "carousels don't go anywhere, but Mara [knows] better"--while riding one, she imagines herself as a queen, a circus star, and the leader of a parade. Though its story isn't all that exciting, the book's short sentences and bright cartoon illustrations are well suited to its young audience.
Reviewer: Jackie C. Horne
