Book Synopsis

The competition is heating up at a school vs. school event! Fans of the hit PBS Kids show Arthur will be rooting for their favorite aardvark and his classmates in this engaging chapter book.

Arthur's third-grade class is competing at the Middle Ages Fair against Glenbrook Academy. Mr. Ratburn says that his class has never won the competition before, so Arthur and his friends are determined to break that pattern this year.

But Arthur is disqualified after falling through a wall in Merlin's Labyrinth, and his class goes on to lose at tug-of-war and even the pie-eating contest! The only challenge left is to pull a sword from a stone. Is there still time for Arthur and his classmates to show Glenbrook who the real winners are?

In chapter-book format, this exciting Medieval-style adventure will be a hit among Arthur fans who are ready to read on their own.
