Childhood Favorite
This is my all time favorite childhood book. I originally bought the soft cover at the Salvation Army for a quarter. I read it so many times, that it's falling apart. I now purchased the hardcover and look forward to reading this book to my daughter (who, by the way, was almost named Hannah).

Pinky Pye
This story is about the Pyes (Rachael, her brother Jerry, Mama, Papa, Gracie, Uncle Benny, and Ginger) who go on vacation so Papa ,a famous ornithologist, can figure out what a puffin is doing there. His bad memory gets him in a lot of trouble very early on in the book. Little did he know he wouldn't get much work done due to an abandoned kitten left on their cabin's door step. Pinkey Pye they ...

Very funny
I read this book to my three boys ages 9,6 and 3 and they could not stop laughing. Jane's imagination and simple ways of viewing life around her really capture what it is like to be a kid. We had to stop several times so that they could act out certain parts. I think Jane is a friend that we all would like to have. She's beyond nice and there is never a dull moment when she is around (whether ...

The story Rufus M. by Eleanor Estes is about a kid named Rufus Moffat. Rufus has some trouble sometimes, but he practices until he gets it right. Rufus writes his name like this: Rufus M. Sometimes Rufus gets trapped, but he finds his way out. Sometimes Rufus can get rough. Rufus M. is also clever. He also makes up imaginary friends. One time he makes up the invisible piano player. Rufus is ...

Wonderful Story
This was a great book with a perfect lesson about bullying. I read it with my daughters aged 5, 7 and 9. They really got the lesson.

The moffat museum
the moffat museum is not as good as the first 3 but is still good. It's funny but sylvie is gone halfway through. But that leads to some great stories. It only follows jane and rufus though. Joey and sylvie's views are never shown. but i like the stories so it's worth 4 stars.

Triste y Bello
Todos los días Wanda Petronski venia a la escuela con el mismo vestido -- siempre limpio pero bien usado. Así que por que diría que tenia cien vestidos, todos en fila, su armario en casa? Era una idea tan increíble que Peggy, la chica mas popular de la clase, no podía resistir burlarse de Wanda todos los días. Maddie, la mejor amiga de Peggy, sabia lo que era ser pobre y odiaba lo que las chicas ...

DON'T sit in that chair!
I read this book out loud to my children (ages 8 & 10). They absolutely loved it and always got SO mad when I stopped reading at the end of the chapter. They just had to know what would happen next (and because I did too, I would often let them stay up late and read another chapter.) Copin is an 11 year old boy who is slightly mischievous (he just can't help it though, he has so many great ...

Quiet & Beautiful
This book is perhaps my favorite of all time--though I am no longer a child, I loved it when I was, and love it still. It is a quiet little book--events happen, to be sure, but though there is a burglarly, there are no life-and-death situations. It concerns the thoughts and doings of one Connie and her friends and compatriots in the Brooklyn cul-de-sac where she lives. A fascinating presentation ...

``Jimmy McGee... Hero.''
Hey, what can I say? ``The Curious Adventures of Jimmy McGee'' is just about the best darned book for BedTime Stories, 2nd only to Pooh. It's fantastical & wonderous, w/plenty of character & originality. With catch-phrases & situational romps, Estes creates a wonderful world, easy for children of all ages to escape to. & I'm sure to catch heck for saying this, but in a time of the over-saturation ...
