Wonderful surprise

+ Wonderful!
+ Thanks

I bought what I thought was a just used copy of the Velveteen Rabbit board book and I got a book that was as good as new that was signed by the illustrator. What a surprise and a delight. I am hoping it becomes the first in a collection of classic books in my granddaughter's library. Thank you.

A favorite

+ A Must for Every Bookshelf
+ Across the generations...

When a young boy is frustrated, treated unfairly or suffers from bad luck, he can turn to this book for comfort and a grin. The pictures are fun, the writing is very good and the story line is great. This is the title that got my 6 and 7 year olds hooked on Judith Viorst and other Alexander books.
