Book Reviews of Who Needs Donuts?Book Review: Funny and fascinating Summary: 5 Stars
I have owned this book since it was first published in the 1970s. The pages of my original copy are falling out as I have read it to children SO many times. Children never tire of looking at all the quirky signs and details. And of course the plot makes perfect sense. The author is a genius. It is the perfect gift for any child but particularly for someone interested in drawing and fascinated by cities.
Book Review: Great book Summary: 5 Stars
I had this book when I was little and now I read it to my daughters. The illustrations are unbeatable--you could spend an hour looking at each page. Every time you read it you see something new, and I've been reading it for years. The lesson learned from the story is that while you can go off and travel the world for something you think you love, the place where the most love really is is at home.
Book Review: This reprint will attract new generations Summary: 5 Stars
Mark Alan Stamaty's Who Needs Donuts? first appeared in 1973 but 30 years later is just as compelling, even if its pictures are in black and white. Sam's dilemma of too many donuts involves a host of characters and zany situations as his donut-collecting gets out of hand. Long out of print, this reprint will attract new generations with involving, fun tales.
Book Review: A view from the other side Summary: 1 Stars
Maybe it's a trans Atlantic thing, but please don't buy this book for any adult in Britain. I couldn't believe how badly drawn and banal it was. I think it's a good nostalgia trip, and I don't knock it for that, and I can see why little kids would like it, but please don't surprise any grown up in the UK with it.
Book Review: amazing artwork! Summary: 5 Stars
My children would check out this book from the library over & over. Every time we looked at it we would find some new hidden treasure in the artwork. I was thrilled to find it again so that my grandchildren can now have the same experience.
