There Is a Carrot in My Ear and Other Noodle Tales

Meet the silliest family in the world!

Grandpa Brown tries to hatch a baby horse. Mr. Brown shouts at his underwear. And Jane Brown grows a carrot in her ear (she planted a radish).

Here are six stories to make young readers giggle. As the author puts it: A noodle is a silly person. This book is about a family of noodles and the silly things they say and do.

There Is a Carrot in My Ear and Other Noodle Tales is a Level One I Can Read book, which means it’s perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences. Whether shared at home or in a classroom, the short sentences, familiar words, and simple concepts of Level One books support success for children eager to start reading on their own.

| ‘Six funny stories about a family of very silly people. Lavishly laced with hilarity, they can be read alone or aloud over and over again. Cartoon drawings are bright and perky.’ —BL. ‘Brisk, easy-to-read words and sentences.’ —K.
