Arturo's Baton (Soar to Success)
Kindergarten-Grade 3-A famous conductor is convinced that he cannot work without his special baton. However, when the stick disappears, he learns it is his talent, not the baton, that is important. Neither didactic nor frivolous, Hoff's story of self-confidence will not be lost on young readers. The straightforward story line is driven by the events and the large, colorful cartoon illustrations. Simplicity is a trademark in Hoff's books for young readers-and it works again in Arturo's Baton.Gale W.
