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!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

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.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
