Harriet and the Roller Coaster
by
Nancy Carlson
Children's fiction, book plus cassette
ages 3-8
George teases Harriet that she is too chicken to ride the roller coaster. Can Harriet work up the courage to try the coaster? I am dreaming of summer and amusement park rides on this cold January day in Ohio thanks to Nancy Carlson! Cedar Point! King's Island! County Fair! State Fair! Here I come!
Her story is straightforward and rather realistic except for the main characters being a cartoon dog and a rabbit riding amusement park rides. I especially liked that the dog is wearing a Hawaiian shirt with dog bones on it - doggy summer fashion.
