New-Good Quality was Just OK-Some skipping

I got a used CD, and it was cheaper than new. But, there was some skipping. It wasn't the kind of skipping that makes the CD useless, so I did not send it back. But, it wasn't really new or great quality.

Still, I think it's worth getting used.

Fun and short - good history for my eight-year-old

Judging from the 100 times my daughter listened to this, I would say it was quite interesting. Great format and length to get little ones interested in history. I looked for and downloaded other books in this "Who was..." series as a result.

Great book

Pretty good book.

I learned a lot. More then I thought I could learn from a child's book (even though I am a child)

I would recommend this book to anyone. It has An amazing story and an amazing personality.

A Treat to Your Ears and Tummy!

If you could sum up Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs / Pickles to Pittsburgh in three words, what would they be?

Funny, Whimsical, Exciting

What did you like best about this story?

The description of the worlds of food and the love the children shared for their grandfather.

What about Jerry Terheyen and Linda Terheyen s performance did you like?

I liked their positive energy and tones used to keep the child spirit bright for this book.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When they said that everyone in the world should have food.

Any additional comments?

Great read! Took me back to my childhood.

Good, But Lacking Something

Any additional comments?

These are pretty good kids' stories; they're creative, funny, quirky, and relatable (in that kids love food). However, they lacked something that could have made them more creative. I think I disliked the bookends of realism; I disliked that Chewandswallow was merely a fantasy. Then again, the world of the Wild Things in Where The Wild Things Are is just as much a fantasy. Yet, it feels much more real than the fantasy land of these stories. I think most kids would enjoy them though. I just don't think they'll be the kinds of stories remembered vividly in later life.

Also, the male narrator was great, but the female narrator (especially in Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs) was really annoying.

Cute...

A fun and cute children's story that every child would like.

Title: Peter Duck

Subtitle: A Treasure Hunt in the Caribbees (Swallows and Amazons Series)

Author: Arthur Ransome

Narrator: Alison Larkin

Language: English

Release date: 10-22-08

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 66 votes

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

We attribute their success to two facts: first, Ransome is a great storyteller, and second, he clearly writes from first-hand experience. Independence and initiative are qualities any child can understand and every volume in this collection celebrates these virtues.

The third book in Arthur Ransome's wonderful series for children, Peter Duck takes intrepid explorers John, Susan, Titty, and Roger Walker, and fearsome Amazon pirates Nancy and Peggy Blackett, onto the high seas. Under the command of the infamous Captain Flint (Nancy and Peggy's Uncle Jim), the children brave a real-life pirate and his cutthroat crew, fog, sharks, and the ravenous crabs of Crab Island in the search for buried treasure.

All 12 novels in the Swallows and Amazons series have been brought to life in the US in print by David R. Godine, Publisher.

Poor Printing Quality of Timeless

Boxed set 1-23

This review is regarding the poor printing quality of the books that are currently being sold.

Message to Amazon:I just ordered the presentation 23-box set and several individual books. The books are all printed in China. The quality of the printing is so poorly done that I am returning $200 worth of books. I am writing to ask if this is the new standard of publishing for Beatrix Potter books. I am working on a graduate paper and have purchased a large number of books written by Judy Taylor, Margaret Lane, and Leslie Linder--all experts in the work of Beatrix Potter. I purchased the complete set of books and individual ones so that I can compare the different editions with the original privately edition printed in 1901, the first Frederick Warne & Co. published edition in 1902, the centenary edition published in 2002, and the 110th edition published in 2012. There is a huge difference in the printing quality in paper texture and color quality with the recent new editions being sold by Amazon. The earlier new printings Amazon sold have an almost satin quality to them. The later ones have a rough almost grainy texture. The printing on all the recent editions appears as if they were printed on machines with low toner. The text and picture colors appear faded as if printed by amateurs. The quality is unbelievably poor!

Is there a quality control on these books? Is anyone checking to make sure that what is being sent to customers is a standard that you approve of? From all my research on Beatrix Potter, I understand she wanted to have the books printed as cheaply as possible to be able to reach as many children as possible, but 111 years later, we should expect a higher quality than what is being published opposed to even one year ago. Children and adults deserve a much better quality that is being produced at this time in China.

February 28, 1938, Beatrix Potter gave advice to Josephine and Delmar Banner regarding publication of their artwork. Rather than to have their work reproduced badly, she advised them to redesign the pages to allow for current publishing practices because, "Children deserve the best" (Letters 387).

Can you assure me that the quality of the books you sell are good quality and not these poorly printed editions?

Can someone follow-up with me to see what is being done about the poor quality of these books being sold on Amazon.com? Read the reviews and you will see this is a huge problem. I am a loyal Amazon customer. You can tell by my order history. You always stand behind the quality of your merchandise. I hope you will investigate and require answers from the vendors you are purchasing these books from. If this a problem with Penguin publishers in UK, they need to step up and implement a review of their quality control practices. I have also emailed Penguin Publishers in UK.

Five Stars

Loved this collection when I was a kid and now sharing with my daughter. Great classic stories.

Peter Rabbit Book Set was perfect.

I've wanted this for my daughter for years.

Title: Clifford at the Circus

Publisher's Summary:

When Emily Elizabeth finds out the circus is in trouble, Clifford jumps at the chance join! But after taming the lions, walking the tightrope and filling in for an elephant, Clifford no longer needs to save the circus -he needs to rescue Emily Elizabeth!

©1985 Norman Bridwell (P)2008 Scholastic Inc.

Editorial Reviews:

Things are going wrong at the circus: the tightrope walker has a sprained ankle, the human cannonball is fresh out of gunpowder, and the tigers wont obey their trainer. Nevertheless, the show must go on, and its up to Clifford to save the day. Clifford dresses up as a clown, fills in for an elephant with a cold, and causes a bit of mischief himself, drinking all the high-dive water. Actress and muppeteer Stephanie DAbruzzo is no stranger to show business herself, and here she colors the proceedings with sprightly good humor and animated exuberance. In lieu of pictures, young listeners are treated to captivating sound effects: roaring lions, trumpeting elephants, and, of course, the barks and yelps of a certain big red dog.

Can't go wrong with a Clifford book.

Perfect Clifford, as usual

Our younger children, 5 and 3 years, both love Clifford books. The five year old is able to read them herself since they are not too complex. As usual, the story is sweet with Clifford getting into some funny situations and ultimately saving the day.

Five Stars

Good price. We all know how expensive books can be!

Good good and fast shipping.

MY BEST DOG

My son loves Clifford, we read these stories daily before going to sleep, it's educational at the same time, he began to say full sentences after reading Clifford stories for several times.

Cute classic

Peter has a sister and he's losing all of his special things. Peter doesn't like his crib, high chair or reading chair being painted pink.

The pictures are sweet and fun. A very quick story.
