Customer Reviews

The story was very interesting and the pictures were pretty.

I am 4 years old. This was a very interesting book. The carousel was beautiful. I liked all the pictures in the book. The girl in the book, Rosie, was pretty, and I felt sorry for her when she got sick, I liked the way it ended and I made my mom read it to me over and over.
