I'm using Arithmetic Level A by Clifford Upton (one of the authors of Practical Arithmetic) with my 3rd grader. I also have Practical Arithmetic, but I like the other one better just because it's bigger and we can work out of it together. I really like it a lot. It's old fashioned but it has a nice mix of regular and word problems. I find it straightforward and easy to use. The only downside that I can think of is that you have to copy the problems from the book. We use a white board for doing most of the problems, so it's not that much of an issue here.
