  1. Open wide is my favorite book because it has the most humor. Like fore example teeth going to school I mean what's wrong with that! It also shows cool facts about teeth like that in the 1500's barbers could help your boo boos, cut your hair, and pull out your teeth. My favorite part is when you see Florida from the scrambed states of America book say I think I am in the wrong book.

  6. My favorite book is the scrambled states of America talent show. It is very funny and it educates you on the states. I think that it is very funny and that all of the states are crazy! But the book can easily became your favorite because of her excellent work on the illustrations. The drawings add a lot more humor to the book.

  8. My favorite Laurie Keller book is The Scrambeled states in America Talent show. It helps you learn states. One of the states is Georgia and she has stage fright. So she goes to the doctor and he tells her to imagine the audience is in there underwaer. Georgia does that and she is juggling with California and he falls of the stage they keep on juggling and end the show.

  11. I love Laurie Keller!!! I also loved her book " Arnie the Donut" But when I read the book I didn't read the author! Now my favorite book is "Open Wide." I love Laurie Keller's books so much, that I've read every single book written by her that my classroom has!!! But what I really love about some books is that there is always a problem, then someway the characters figure how to solve the problem! Just like in open wide, all of the teeth get worried and start running around the classroom because the teacher talks about cavities, then he says brush your teeth, then you won't get a cavity then the teeth start cleaning themselves. In "Arnie the Donut" the problem is Arnie finds out he is supposed to be eaten! Then the characters solve the problem by making Arnie a donut-dog! Thats why I love Laurie Keller so much!

After high school Laurie took general classes at a community college not knowing what she wanted to major in. Her friend brought her to a student art show at Kendall College of Art and Design.
