When Arthur's best friend Buster leaves town to visit his father for a month, Buster promises to send postcards to Arthur. Every day Arthur looks for a postcard in the mail, but finds nothing from Buster. When Arthur learns that all his friends at school have heard from Buster, Arthur is crushed--until the postman sets things right again the day before Buster's scheduled return.

Author Notes

Author and illustrator, Marc Brown was born in Erie, Pennsylvania in 1946. He attended the Cleveland Institute of Art. After college, he worked numerous odd jobs before he began his career.

He is most renown for creating the Arthur series. The idea for Arthur, the aardvark came one night while telling his son a bedtime story. The first title in the series was "Arthur's Nose" written in 1976. Since then, Brown has written over thirty books in the Arthur Adventure series. D. W., Arthur's sister was another character created by Brown. In addition to writing, Brown also developed the Arthur television series on PBS.
