Buster's Dino Dilemma

A parent might reach for this book when their child is wrestling with a tough choice between personal desire and doing the right thing. In this early chapter book, Arthur's friend Buster finds a rare dinosaur fossil on a school field trip and decides to keep it, even though he knows it belongs to the museum. The story gently explores Buster's internal conflict, the guilt he feels, and how his friends help him find the courage to be honest. It's a perfect choice for young, independent readers, especially fans of the Arthur series, as it uses a familiar and beloved character to open a conversation about integrity, personal responsibility, and the good feeling that comes from making the right choice.
