A Gentle Masterpiece
The text is simple rhyming couplets that make it easy for a child to remember, and introducing them to some nursery-rhyme and fairy tail names they’ll hear later on (Tom Thumb, )The illustrations are wonderful, taking you into a gentle, sunny, imaginary world of make-believe and minor problem-solving. Every child I’ve given this book to has loved it.

Childhood favorite
My favorite book from when I was younger. I was happy to find a copy to give my friends daughter. I was happy it was a board book but I wish it was still the one that came with blocks. I know the book is out of print. I’m so glad that Amazon still had some in stock.

All-time favorite children's book!
This book has a special place in my heart... it was the first book I ever "read" (though really, I had it memorized, and just fooled (or if they weren't fooled, they sure pretended to be!) family and friends by "reading" the book by myself! LOL! And now, I read this book to my daughter almost every night. The poetic rhyme of the book makes it easy for kids to learn and remember. The pictures make the book interesting and fun for young minds. Older toddlers/school-aged children will love to try to find the characters hidden in each picture! The large words help parents and new readers move their fingers along under the words as the children try to learn the new words. Familiar characters help make reading less intimidating. I can't say enough about how truly wonderful this book is, and how much this book meant to me as a child, and how much it means to me now as a parent.

Fun book - good illustrations and rhymes
This is a great book weaving lots of fairy tale and nursery rhyme characters. The illustrations are fun to point things out in, with lots of things for toddlers to observe. Characters and themes appear in multiple pages, giving lots to talk about beyond the text itself (which is also fun to read).

Love This Book
This was a favorite of my now 40 and 37 year old daughters. It’s always my go-to for new babies. It’s fun to read with beautiful illustrations. My granddaughter babbled her way through every page and became the first book she “read” to us. A must have book for any child’s library!

Precioso libro, pero cuidado con el tamaño!!
Compré este libro guiada por las opiniones que hay en amazon.co.uk y la verdad es que ha sido todo un acierto. La historia es una especie de "veo-veo" en la que los niños tienen que buscar en las ilustraciones personajes populares de las nursery rhymes y fairy tales que están escondidos en las mismas. La historia está escrita en verso, por lo que es muy fácil recordarla y las ilustraciones son preciosas. Mi hija todavía no sabe hablar, pero va repitiendo toda la historia en su lenguaje. En cuanto al tamaño, no cojáis el de tapa blanda, porque es diminuto y el libro pierde una gran parte de su valor. Decantaos por uno de mayor tamaño si queréis disfrutar del libro y, en particular, de las ilustraciones. Merece la pena a pesar de la diferencia de precio. Como el color es importantísimo, yo tampoco cogería la versión kindle.

Classic
I have this for my 18month old "reader". We love the details in the pictures, so many little things to point out. We like that the words are simple enough and uncluttered to recognize. Lovely introduction to other little story's rhymes within the story.
