Cute for for the very young
For some reason I did not expect this book to be so juvenile. The cover illustration should have alerted me. This might be a good choice for very young listeners, perhaps 3-5 years old.
Perfect!
Book is in perfect condition and I'm sure my Grandson, Elliot, will enjoy it for Christmas! :)

Excellent read -aloud
I picked up this book on a whim at my childrens' book fair. I am so glad that I did. My sons are 9 and 7. They loved the story. I read it to them and did "voices" with the characters. It was fabulous. The author describes the characters well enough that you can really attribute a certain tone and accent to each of them. The book is short but it has a great story line.
