    • A timeless classic

      I fondly remember this great little book from my own childhood and now have purchased it for my grandchildren. This is a great story to read over and over, one that a child will love to repeat from memory, chanting the poetic phrases, while the moral of the story builds character-- to promote an ethic of caring and inclusiveness. No childhood should miss out on this little book!

    • Millions of Cats

      A delightful classic that never loses its appeal for children. I had this book as a child and now my granddaughter has it and will hopefully save it for her children.

    • Content vs cover

      The book content had a good lesson; however, the book cover was surprisingly old and damaged. I thought I was buying a book that was in a relatively better shape. It was a discarded old book from an elementary school in Maryland, complete with a stamp saying so.
