Monty
Description
Because he suffers from asthma, six-year-old Monty is nervous about starting school, but he soon learns to cope with his illness and use his special talents to make friends.
Quick Summary
Monty shows young readers that having asthma does not mean you cannot have wild adventures and be the coolest kid on the block. "Mostly Monty" has a warm, can-do spirit that kids adore, especially when Monty uses his quick thinking and kind heart to turn nervous first-day jitters into friendship magic. If your kid likes the gentle humor and school-time fun of "Henry and Mudge" or "Nora," they will fall in love with Monty. This sweet chapter book is perfect for kids ages 5 to 8 in kindergarten through third grade who are ready for short, satisfying reads.
