Book Review: GORGEOUS ILLUSTRATIONS!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Of course the story is great. The illustrations are absolutely marvelous. I buy children's books because I'm looking for great illustrations and Jerry Pinkney is magnificent. This is probably the only time I felt guilty not paying full price for a book. It seemed like an affront to all the beautiful paintings. I know it will be a favorite when I share it with my great-nephews for reading time.

Book Review: Not for early readers
Summary: 1 Stars

I've got no opinion about this book per se, but the "1" star rating goes to the Amazon description. "No text is necessary" should read "there is no text." While described as for the 4-8 year old set, this would be a disappointment for early readers.

That said, the art is nice. The reality is it's probably more attuned to adults, or adult story tellers.

Book Review: A must have.
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this book for my grandchildren (8 & 6), but I really wanted to keep it for myself. It is the age-old story, but with no narrative. I told them the story several times and then they tell it back to me using their own words and imagination. But the big appeal of this book is the absolutely stunning artwork. Jerry Pinkney is to be congratulated.

Book Review: Helping Others Has Rewards
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the fable with a new twist. The young reader will respond to the sounds of the animals and create his or her own oral story. The illustrations bring out the beauty of art for the imagination. Time and time again the young reader will tell the tale of the rewards brought out by assisting others. And the ending of this book has a unique surprise.
