Review:One of our all-time favorites around here. While it's easily memorized, the illustrations and the rhythm keep us coming back time and time again. Even I will stare at the pictures, finding new nuances to enjoy each time we read it. We have read this one since my oldest, now 5, was a small baby, and we still enjoy it. It will always be read at my house. Read more

Review:While it's no "Goodnight Moon," there is something still entrancing about the prose in "The Big Red Barn." Some of the wording is awkward, but the story is nice (life in the barn from morning to night, cute animals!), and the board version is perfectly sized for small hands. Illustrations are lovely and the length is perfect for our 14 month toddler. Read more

Review:I was disappointed in the size of the book and the quality of the book. I had purchased this book for my older Grandkids and it was in a larger book and better quality. That is what I thought I was getting. Like the book I ordered for Goodnight Moon. Read more

Review:The book was less than average shape (advertised as average) with multiple torn pages and one page was torn in half, mended with tape. It was VERY used. I wasn't very happy with the condition of the book. We love this book, though! Read more

Review:Chicka Chicka 1,2,3 is a good counting book, not quite as catchy as the alphabet version. I'd buy this book simply for the color-coded 1-100 section on the inside back cover. I find that part more effective than the book itself. My two kids (4 & 5) both learned to count to 100 with it. They didn't quite catch on to the book portion because it just counts by 10's, but they did still like it. Actually seeing the numbers all written out and separated by color made it click. The first thin... Read more

Review:Great book for building self esteem for young kids who are trying to learn how to eat properly, use the bathroom properly, use proper manners, etc. Awesome illustrations! I wish you could buy a large, simplified version of the illustrations in a soloring book to go along with the book. Read more

Review:The beauty of this book is that it is interactive (especially for a baby/toddler fascinated by the word NO). The illustrations are clever and the text is simple enough for smaller children to understand and follow. Read more

Review:Nice little book about a box of crayons who learn that being different is ok but that they can still work together to complete the picture. This would be great for k-2 classes about working together and being different but still being part of the class. Read more

Review:FINALLY! Re-Released in all its glory. What a lucky chance that I searched for this book just last week, as our (abridged) copy has been much loved over the past years and saw the pre-order for the 50th anniversary releases. I checked and the number of pages was 96! I was still a bit skeptical, I hadn't seen a full length version since my childhood (at least 25 years ago!) at the local library- but I purchased it thinking it was worth the chance. What a great revelation to see the stories I h... Read more

Review:My parents have been neighbors and close friends of Peter Spier for well over 30 years. Peter has even included our family in a couple of his stories. His gentle approach and kindness are reflected in his drawings and his writing. My children grew up on his books and now my grandchildren will soon be exposed to his wonderful story telling. Read more
