Fluffy for President!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Scholastic Reader Level 3: Fluffy Goes to School (Paperback)
My kids (7 and 4) and I recently discovered the Fluffy books and can't get enough of them. They're awfully funny! This is the first book, which tells how Fluffy gets his name and settles in to his new home in an elementary school classroom. He can't believe the kids name him Fluffy--he had something more like "Butch" in mind. We highly recommend this book, and any others about Fluffy.

First of the Fluffy the classroom guinea pig series, easy read,
This review is from: Scholastic Reader Level 3: Fluffy Goes to School (Paperback)
These gentle scholastic reader stories about Fluffy the classroom guinea pig are perfect level 3 readers for encouraging kids to read. Students in 3rd and 4th grade particularly seem to enjoy the antics of Fluffy.
This book is the 1st in the series, in which Ms. Day's class gets a pet guinea pig. Although Fluffy cannot talk, the reader can see his thoughts, which are often quite funny. In this story, Fluffy gets named (he thinks of himself as a Butch more than a Fluffy). Fluffy gets into all kinds of situations, sometimes because of his own actions like chasing food, and they always end well. They are funny yet teach lessons without being obvious about it. My students love these books--they are fairly easy to read, have larger print than most books, are funny, have 3-4 chapters and 40-50 pages. Kids do not want to stop reading them, they want to know what happens next! I recommend Kate McMullan's series about Fluffy very strongly. Kids want to read them, they are non-threatening and often can be used as a springboard to discuss topics with the child, and are fairly easy to read and understand. Fluffy is quite a character and even I appreciate the humorous situations and results!
