Review:Because I was born and raised in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn from mid 30s to mid 50s when I left to find the growing me, it was fascinating to have this sacred place so owned by a gifted artist of a different race in a different era, and yet still have memories evoked. Our stories may be different but the human experience of love, friendships, betrayals all resonate. Read more

Review:Being half Hispanic, I truly enjoyed stories of the culture. I can relate to some of the recipes and tried a couple. I purchased both the hard back and one for my Kindle. I will give the hard back to a friend whose family has a Mexican Deli. Read more

Review:NOTE: This review is for the ebook version.
This is a classic and I couldn't resist being able to have it to re-read, share, and reminisce about. But I was disappointed in this ebook version for a couple reasons. First, the layout is two-page only, so you have to hold your ereader (Kindle, Android tablet, etc.) lengthwise to be able to read it. I know some pages don't make perfect sense otherwise, but I just don't like being told how to read a book. And second, this version is differ... Read more
Review:The original hardcover The Foot Book is absolutely awesome, but I had a lot of trouble finding it to buy on Amazon (it has a white cover, not green). For some reason the only versions that came up in my search were the board books. My daughterss have loved this book since they were 6 months old (one is now 12 months and the other is 3 1/2), and my copy is very tired.
Be aware that this version only has 12 pages and has stickers and flaps, which get torn and make a mess. If you're looking f... Read more
Review:My daughter absolutely loves Dr. Seuss, which is a pleasure to watch from my perspective. The books are small and sturdy, easily handled by a small child. The print quality is excellent. The content, well that speaks for itself... greater minds than my own have reviewed Dr. Seuss's work, I am certain in a favorable manner. Read more
Review:I was hoping this would be more like the actually Dr. Seuss book, its not. Its probably about 6 or 7 lines and the last one is totally ridiculous, it doesn't even rhyme. I'd have been better off just buying to real book and reading it to my son. But the boardbooks are so nice because I can give it to him and not worry about him ripping pages out. I think the REAL Dr. Seuss books are a must have but not this thing or anything like it. Read more
