A Much Awaited Return!
11 Oct 2000
Format:Hardcover
Ereth returns in this, the fourth book in the Dimwood Forest series. I am a fourth and fifth grade teacher. I have read the entire series to my students and they absolutely love it! The classic battle between good and evil and through it all, Ereth's wonderful, hilariously scathing view of all around him---except Poppy, of course! In this book, Ereth experiences all of the joys of parenthood, even if it was by accident! This book simply flows along. My students did not want it to end, and neither did I!

The best of the series!
13 May 2000
Format:Hardcover
Now you can read Tales from Dimwood Forest in the proper order, Ragweed, Poppy, Poppy & Rye, and the last, Ereth's own book, Ereth's Birthday. It is so funny! The best of the series!

A Class Review
13 Oct 2011
Format:Paperback
Our teacher read the book Ereth's Birthday to us. We thought it was hilarious. We think every class should hear this book read aloud.
Ereth was disappointed that Poppy wasn't waiting for him on his birthday with a present. He got angry and took a walk in the forest. While on his walk in the forest he found a mother fox whimpering in a trap. Ereth promised the dying fox that he would take care of her kits. Little did he know, Marty the fisher was stalking him. Ereth had so much fun taking care of the foxes that he didn't realize he was being hunted.
We would recommend purchasing this great book that is filled with funny alliterations from Ereth and lots of adventure.
