He tried many different kind of animals’ nose such as goat, rabbit, mouse, zebra, alligator, and rhinoceros. But by the end, he comes to term with his nose!

A wonderful book about being yourself and accepting other people’s difference. A great lesson for both children and adults! ( )

The first entry in the venerable Arthur series. Arthur is teased because of his nose, and considers rhinoplasty, but ultimately decides that he's fine just as he is. Not too bad art, decent message. The highlight is Arthur trying on various other animals' noses to see which he likes. Not a bad book, but the series does improve.

Arthur's Nose os the first book in a long line of the Author series written by Marc Brown. One day, when Arthur is sick, he decides he doesn't like is nose. His sister thinks it looks funny. His friends make fun of it when they're together. So Arthur sees a specialist to change the way he looks. After realizing that no other nose suits him, Arthur chooses to stick with his no because he isn't Arthur without it. I though this was a sweet book that really any kid might be able to relate to. I can't name anyone who hasn't had a moment of insecurity about the way they look. Arthur decides to keep his nose just because it makes him who he is and that's a wonderful message to send to kids.
