A Childhood Favorite
Wacky and fun, this book takes one of America's favorite pet animals: dogs, and presents them in an adventure that children will love (I certainly did, I read it at least 50 times!). In this story we follow a boy dog who is riding around. He runs into a lady dog who keeps asking him if he likes her hat. The hats and the boy dog's blunt answers are hilarious. Thru out the story we also see ...

A great book -
My 7 year old son enjoys this book in Spanish - he is in a Spanish immersion class - learning Spanish all day in elementary school for the next 5 years. It's a great beginner reader book with fun pictures (and I'm learning Spanish, too, from it!)

Just like I remember it....!
Just like I remember it. This was my favorite book when I was learning to read. Mom and I read it over and over. I made sure it was one of my son's first books, and now as a teacher of ESL, I find it useful in introducing colors, direction (up and down), stop and go, etc. This book will always bring fond memories, and I recommend it both as a mom and teacher.

My Son Loves This Book!
It is adapted from the original story of The Best Nest, but great for older toddlers and preschool age kids. My son plays with it a lot and he's almost three.

The book is in really good condition. It is more than a beginning reader can read but it is something he can grow into.

Memories
My son received this book on his third birthday - in 1977. My three year old grandson recently discovered the tattered and torn copy that I had saved. He immediately fell in love with it and proudly annouces that it is "Daddy's favorite book." I'm not sure which "boy" will be more excited when the new copy arrives but in the meantime it has brought back a flood of memories for this Grandma. What ...

One of the best children's books in our collection!

A whole curriculum for 3 bucks!
I picked this book up with no expectations at all. It ended up being the main book we have used all year to learn the alphabet. It's so great!!! The best thing about this book is that the alphabet runs down the side of each page so when you are on the "E" page for example you have the whole alphabet listed down the side of the page with E highlighted. I taught my daughter to run her fingers ...

Robert the Rose Horse
This is a very good book that I read when I was little. I ordered it for my niece who is expecting, however, I never received it from the person I purchased it from. I ended up getting a refund and ordering from another distributor on Amazon.

A Timeless Moral Lesson
I am reminded of myself and my neighborhood playmates when I read this book. I first read it to myself at age six (I'm now 57!). At that time, I'm sure, my perceptions of myself were more like Sam the owl. Gus the firefly was (I thought) more like my big brother and the "rotten" kids in the neighborhood. Their idea of "fun" occasionally wound up getting me or someone else hurt. Now that ...

Beginner Books, 1968

funny early reader
Humorous story that teaches a lesson in "looking before you leap" and what can happen when decisions are made without the proper consideration. A pair of birds try out different homes and eventually discover they prefer their original nest to anywhere else. Perfect for the kindergarten/first grade level reader. My kids have liked every PD Eastman book we have read, for the way he draws the ...

Fun and sturdy
My 2-year-old loves this book. She is able to manipulate all the moving parts without ripping them out of the book. As a big 'Go Dog Go' fan, she also enjoys seeing the familiar characters and being able to make the dogs drive around in cars and jump in the water.
