Pros

A verified purchaser named Doris L Warren, rated this book five stars because she bought it for her children last year, and she had been searching for a new copy for her grandchild. She was happy to find a copy here on amazon for a great price. It was a great reading aid, and fun as well. Be aware that the inside pages are in black and white unlike the cover. The one drawback for her was not being able to find a hard-covered copy. Otherwise, this book brought back precious memories, and it will be sure to create even more. She would recommend it to anyone with a young child. Other verified purchaser also gave the opinion about this book, the book she had sat with her grandson over and over again reading this book. It was definitely one of his favorites, and too see images of his own ethnic background was a plus. She was thanking to Mrs Oliver for bringing this gift to the world of children's literature.
