5 out of 5 stars I grew up with this, now my son will to!   October 1, 2008
C. Stoneham (Texas)
I used to spend HOURS just looking through the book at all the illustrations. The stories didn't always grab me, but the pictures did. There was SO much going on. I remember especialy the picture of the castle with the moat and all the mice. Man hours and hours of fun! Now, at 35, I have my first son. I bought this book 5 years ago "just in case." Looks like I get to watch him have fun with it too!


5 out of 5 stars Charm Still Holds 20 Years Later   September 23, 2008
Kyle C. Rose (Hattiesburg, MS)
I have loved this book since before I was old enough to walk. I bought this book to have a walk down memory lane and to remember my own road to literacy. This book was instrumental in my learning to read.

I recommend any Richard Scarry books to anyone with youngsters. They contain wonderful stories and are very educational.



5 out of 5 stars A classic   September 14, 2008
Excited State (Maine)
This was one of my favourite books as a child - I can remember spending hours pouring over it, and I am convinced that it taught me how to read. (I was reading at three and a half years old.) The short stories are perfect for children with short attention spans, and the labelled diagrams give children to see the words that they are familiar with in print. I have purchased several of these for my friends' children over the years and am glad to see that this book is still a favourite.


5 out of 5 stars A childhood favorite revisited   July 22, 2008
A. Martin (New River, AZ)
This is a wonderful treasury of stories and pictures designed to keep young children amused and entertained. Gentle lessons in how to be polite and be a good member of a household are delivered with humor, questions to the reader, and brightly colored illustrations.

I used to read this book to my sister when she was very young for hours on end. My 2 1/2 year old son discovered it in our bedroom a few months ago, and now it has become, in his words, our special book, and we read from it night and day! It delights me that he enjoys it so much, and I enjoy reading it with him, and rediscovering my favorites.

This is a book I will likely be sending for Christmas gifts this year!



2 out of 5 stars Colors are Dull   March 23, 2008
A.B. (Seattle, WA)
Love Richard Scarry, but the illustrations in this publication are a bit dull/faded. There is a lot of content here, but still I was disappointed by the faded look. I recommend Richad Scarry's 'I Am a Bunny' Board Book which has superior color and my baby loved it at 3 months! Her first favorite book!!!
