The class homework assignment is to write a story, and everyone seems to be writing about something interesting...except Arthur. Francine's story is funny, so Arthur adds some humor. Buster writes science fiction, so Arthur decides his story should take place on the moon. The Brain says research is important, so Arthur heads to the library. But by the time he's finished, Arthur's story is a mess! Arthur learns that maybe it's best to write about something that he cares about-like his dog, Pal!
Arthur's homework assignment is to write a story. He does this with great enthusiasm. He writes about how he got his puppy. His sister, D.W., is not impressed. Arthur modifies his story to include some of his sister's and friend's ideas. He gets so carried away that he includes a song and dance. When he tries it out on his family, they are a little confused. At school, his friends and teacher give him some good advice and he realizes that his original story idea was really a very good one.

reviewed Arthur Writes a Story (Arthur Adventures Series) on April 05, 2010 Arthur Writes a Story (Arthur Adventures Series)
"Arthur Writes a Story" is somewhat apart of the "Pal the Puppy" trilogy as it deals with Arthur writing a story about how he got Pal from his pet business. From the mind of Marc Brown, Arthur has to write a good paper for his class, but he spends the majority of the book trying to figure out ways to make his story more interesting to hear about. "Arthur Writes a Story" is certainly a book for children who also have problems with writing a good paper for class, and the book would help them learn about writing a story that makes them feel comfortable.
Marc Brown has done it once again in detailing Arthur's current predicament in writing the perfect story for his class. Marc Brown realistically brings out a child's fear of being a failure in a class, as Arthur goes through the same trauma when he tries to think of everything that would make his story seem more exciting to the class, even if the story does not make any sense. I love the way that Arthur's friends do try to help him out with his story since they inspired him to be more creative with his story. The lesson here is that children should try to pick a topic that they are most comfortable talking about and try to be creative with it, which is what Arthur does throughout the book. Marc Brown's illustrations are as creative as ever, especially of the images where Arthur's imagination goes wild as he thinks of purple striped elephants and elephants floating around on the moon for his story. Also, I like the way that Marc Brown makes Arthur look more human than before because now Arthur's body strongly resembles a human body, but of course, he still has an aardvark head.
"Arthur Writes a Story" is a creative and cute little story about the importance of being creative with a story that you are most comfortable writing about. I would strongly recommend this book to children ages four and up since this book will greatly teach small children about how to write the perfect story for a class.
