One of my very favorite books as child

+ An excellent acquisition libraries need to replace a well worn shelf classic.

Great Book

+ Quote it to this day

This is by far my favorite book from my childhood. My copy is now over 30 years old and used often. I was going to buy the new version for my children, but the illustrations in the new version don't do the story justice. The illustrations by Doris Burn in the original book (this one)are ...
  
  











  



  
Sylvester and the Magic Pebble49 reviews

Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing, 2005

Delightful!

+ ordered for a friend
+ A delightful story to share with your little ones

I'm not quite sure what's behind the criticism from other reviewers of this book; it's fairly innocuous compared to some of the Disney animated features in which the parents of cute animal characters are violently murdered.

I just left home and school to live on my own as an intern in DC. I've been doing lots of responsible adult type activities, cooking, waking up early, cleaning etc and was feeling a little strange about feeling so old. As I was walking to work this morning, I took a slightly different route that ...
