“This book is eternal. I read it to my children, and now I read it to my grandchildren. You have no idea how many thousands of times we turned those pages. I replaced my beat-up copy with a new clean printing for my 3 yr old granddaughter, and watched her mesmerized by the beautiful pages, the colors, and the gorgeous graphics. In no time she got the story and could read it along with me. Great book. Could not find a better introduction to the joy of reading for a toddler.” – Debby Lampert
