 Not really Richard Scarry July 7, 2008
Jonathan Lipkin (Brooklyn)
Scarry is a wonderful author, and I and my children love his books. However, this is not a Richard Scarry book. He did not write the text, nor did he draw the illustrations. The stories are passable, but have none of the charm and wit that his other books do. It appears that the book was written and drawn by someone else, based on a TV series, based on his books. I'm disappointed.
If you are looking for books by RS, there are many others available on Amazon that are far better than this one.

Notice the list of "What people who looked at this eventually bought." "The Best Story Collection EVER!" does not itself show up on the list. This book may have merits, but it is not real Richard Scarry, and as others have said, "Richard Scarry is the best!"

If you want to get a child something they will really use, love and want to see over and over again, give any Richard Scarry book. I have grown children and grandchildren, and Richard Scarry hasn't been forgotten by the grown ones or yet left behind by the little ones! Every page in this particular book is interesting and a fun romp through the days. The best thing about Richard Scarry, aside from the wonderful artwork and the clever stories, is the ability to interest both the adult reading the stories and the children listening! The usual "plot" is "a-day-in-the-life" of fire stations, post offices, schools, homes, shopping, traveling, etc. Work-a-day life with action and many words, places, people, vehicles, and usually some little puzzle or challenge included. i cannot recommend these books too highly - and do get the very large storybook as well as this book...the more the merrier!
