Giving this to our daughter for Christmas. Nice to pass along to our kids.

Beautiful Set 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

The books and color pictures really are wonderful. The downside to this set is, and it's been mentioned before, that these are only the first five books.

Beautiful, durable, but Heavy! 3 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This is a very substantial paperback book set, with beautiful color illustrations, and well worth the price tag. However, I have just two comment regarding this set: 1) My 9-year-old daughter told me she prefers not to have pictures so she can imagine the characters the way she wants to, and 2) compared to the other Little House series, these books are much heavier (thicker pages), which is hard for her to hold up for long periods of time when she is reading in bed. The other books are much lighter, less tiring for her to hold. If you are looking for a library quality paperback that you are going to read to your children, then I highly recommend this quality set. If you are looking for a set for a young reader to read on her own, you may want to consider a less weighty set.

Editorial Review:

Set during the pioneer days of the late 1800s and early 1900s, Laura Ingalls Wilder's books chronicle her life growing up on the Western frontier. For the first time in the history of the Little House books, these new editions feature Garth Williams' interior art in vibrant, full color. Come along for the adventure with this collector's set of the first five Little House books.

Good starter I spy book for the younger spier in your house. I would say 3 or 4 would be the oldest.

My Toddler Enjoys This Book 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

My 2 year old daughter enjoys this book. She often ask for her I-spy book(s) again and again and sits and looks through the book by herself. It keeps her occupied and sitting still for several minutes and that says alot.

Great for even 15 mos! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

My 15 month old daughter loves all the I spy little books. I didn't think she would be ready for them, but after receiving this one as a gift, we've gone out and bought more. Although she loves to read, we find she seems to be more patient when we read this book and sits in our lap trying to spy for 20 minutes at a time (since we reread it).

Wow! another hit for my sons 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

We stumbled on the Eye Spy books purely by accident, but what a find! While we only have a couple of them, we get them from the library all the time and I can't say enough good things. My older son (almost 4) is into counting all the things he finds and finding things that rhyme. My younger son (19 months) will look at it with me, his brother, his father, and do the signs for the objects he knows. He has also learned more signs from these books as we "read" and sign the book with him. These books are terrific!

Editorial Review:

Rhyming verses ask readers to find hidden objects and toy animals in the photographs.

This book gets read by my daughter and I every night! she asks for it and wants to finish- I even used it to come down her four year old dance class waiting to go on stage.

Great Bedtime Book 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I bought this book for my twins, who are almost 2. I loved that it was a Christmas book and thought it would be a special book I would put away, so they could read in 2 years or so at Christmas time.
Was I wrong! I took the book out the week before Christmas, thinking they were too young and would get bored quickly and we would move on to the next book. They absolutely love this book, they ask for it every night and each night their faces light up as we look through it and play I spy, a game I loved to play with my Grandfather and now can play with my little ones.

Editorial Review:

The first photograph, "The Night Before Christmas," features a gingerbread house, Christmas cookies, candles, bulbs, and more. "Visions of Sugarplums" is an abstract composition of Christmas confections; and "Such a Clatter!" is a dynamic explosion of objects. In "It Must Be Saint Nick," Santa is shown in shadow; and in "A Bundle of Toys," the presents in Santa's sack are revealed as a magnificent jumble. The final photograph, "Happy Christmas to All" is a beautiful, pastoral landscape, lustrous under new-fallen snow. The original poem is printed on the endpapers. Can You See What

Another Christmas Story 4 out of 5 stars.
1 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I purchased 15 of these books. They were given out to a group of EC kids that I got to play Santa Claus for during an off site enrichment party for the kids that was held at our Church.

The books arrived on time (all 15 in one delivery!!)and in "brand new condition".

I anticipate doing business with Amazon again.

I teach Kindergarten at a Catholic school. This is the perfect book to tell about the birth of Jesus. It has beautiful illustations and the words engage the listener. You will love it!

Still Love The Christmas Story 4 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

When I was a little girl, my mom bought The Christmas Story book that was in circulation in the 70's. I remember closely looking at the pictures, loving the beautiful colors. The copy I had showed Mary on the cover.

I bought this book for my two year old and was thrilled to see that even though the cover illustration had changed, the story AND the illustrations on the inside were exactly what I remembered from my own copy years ago.

My daughter really loves this book, and I enjoy reading it to her. Would highly recommend.

Editorial Review:

Beautiful paintings by Eloise Wilkin and inspiring text, make this story of the birth of Jesus one to share again and again.

Barely a story 3 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

The book is cute and it has a couple of interactive touch spots for kids to learn from, but the book is clearly made for a 6 month-1 year old. My daughter loves the Max & Ruby series and I have been looking to get her some merchandise. Unfortunately, none of the books I have ordered (that are listed on Amazon at least) compare to the show. Very little story and just a lot of thick paper.

Fun book 5 out of 5 stars.

My autistic son loves this book. The different touch and feel textures provide him with sensory input that he enjoys.

Editorial Review:

"Goodnight, Max," says Max's sister Ruby. But Max can't get comfortable. First he spills a glass of water. Then there are all those itchy cookie crumbs in his bed...and the moon shining through his window. Will poor Max ever fall asleep? Rosemary Wells' beloved Max and Ruby are back in an irresistibly touchable book that is also a satisfying bedtime story. Toddlers won't be able to resist all the tactile elements--fourteen tempting things to touch, move, even smell--while a gently humorous story makes this the perfect book for bedtime, naptime, or anytime!

Sadly Disappointed 1 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

My daughter is almost 3 & we already had 2 books by Mo Willems she LOVES- Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late & Edwina, the Dinosaur That Didn't Know She Was Extinct & I thought I couldn't go wrong. I did. I knew it was a board book & expected it to be short, but geez. Not much there at all. I still love Mo Willems' books & highly recommend the 2 above as well as Leonardo Was a Terrible Monster (which I ordered with this one). Skip it, you could do a lot better with another Willems title.

Another fine pigeon book 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Here is another book involving the pigeon. My grandchildren love these books because they are interactive. Questions are asked in the book and answered by the children. This book can be read with the little ones and they can "read" it themselves without damaging it. It is in the board book format which is meant for little fat hands.

Editorial Review:

A Smidgeon of Pigeon by Mo Willems In Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!, the pigeon dreamed of driving the bus. In this board book, readers will see him emoting at the thought of driving a plane, a train, a car, and more, all in his deliriously over-the-top style.

Fun "read" 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I bought this book and the first night we were to read it, it was read 4 times over and my son still did not want to put it down. The illustrations tell a wonderful imaginative wacky tale of frogs flying into a suburb and having their "night out". We can create the length of the story by spending only as much time as my son wants on each page, taking either seconds or several minutes, since there are no words to read.
I liked it and I know my son loved it. A nice "out of the box" story.

Terrific Tuesday! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I love the books of David Wiesner, they are imaginative and fun. He has amazing talent. Even as an adult I enjoy looking back through his books, just to admire the gorgeous scenes. It's a classic for any children's book collection.

Utterly random and wonderful 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

A total winner in the way of quirky randomness. Hooray for frogs! This is a charming story that is able to survive on a few words and beautiful illustrations that do the proper storytelling of a wonderous and whimsical idea.

Editorial Review:

The unpredictable events of a particular Tuesday unroll before the reader with the precision and clarity of a silent movie. A Caldecott Medal book.

Excellent toddler book! 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

My daughter loves this book! Never fails to get lots of belly laughs. The text in the thought bubbles is really secondary to the telling of the story that goes on via the drawings of Elephant and Piggie. This has been a bedtime favorite for some time and still has not gotten old - highly recommended!

Editorial Review:

Best-selling picture book creator Mo Willems continues his charming Elephant and Piggie first reader series.  
 
The books feature two lovable and funny characters: an optimistic (and sometimes reckless) pig and a cautious, pessimistic elephant.  Children who sat on their parents' laps to have Pigeon read to them will eagerly take the plunge with these books to start reading on their own.  Each book has been vetted by an early learning specialist.  These sweet and surprising stories are a much-needed breath of fresh air in the early reader arena.  

In There Is a Bird On My Head!, Gerald discovers that there is something worse than a bird on your head-two birds on your head!  Can Piggie help her best friend?

Editorial Review:

Charmain Baker is in over her head. Looking after Great-Uncle William's tiny cottage while he's ill should have been easy. But Great-Uncle William is better known as the Royal Wizard Norland, and his house bends space and time. Its single door leads to any number of places—the bedrooms, the kitchen, the caves under the mountains, the past, and the Royal Mansion, to name just a few.

By opening that door, Charmain has become responsible for not only the house, but for an extremely magical stray dog, a muddled young apprentice wizard, and a box of the king's most treasured documents. She has encountered a terrifying beast called a lubbock, irritated a clan of small blue creatures, and wound up smack in the middle of an urgent search. The king and his daughter are desperate to find the lost, fabled Elfgift—so desperate that they've even called in an intimidating sorceress named Sophie to help. And where Sophie is, can the Wizard Howl and fire demon Calcifer be far behind?

Of course, with that magical family involved, there's bound to be chaos—and unexpected revelations.

No one will be more surprised than Charmain by what Howl and Sophie discover.

Another delight! 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

The first grade readers I share these books with adore them! They were so excited to see a new adventure. Living in rainy Seattle, my readers can identify with Piggie's frustration about not being able to enjoy playing outside on a rainy day. As always with the Elephant and Piggie series, the expressions on the faces of the characters, the clear body language, and the simple-- but wonderfully funny-- dialogue help early readers experience all the drama and humor as they read the story.

Editorial Review:

Winning unanimous rave reviews, Mo Willems' Elephant and Piggie series continues to charm readers. Featuring two lovable and funny characters, an optimistic (and sometimes reckless) pig and a cautious, pessimistic elephant, these books make reading irresistible to the beginning readers. Children who sat on their parents' laps to have Pigeon read to them will eagerly take the plunge with these books to start reading on their own.

Each book has been vetted by an early learning specialist (and many adorable early learners).

In Are You Ready to Play Outside?, Piggie can't wait to go play in the sunshine. But will a rainy day ruin all the fun?
