Customer Reviews

My Childhood reading re-discovered

I recently purchased this book for my daughter Zoe. Paging through the colorfully illustrated pages I was immediatly trasported back in time to my own childhood in the seventies, and remembered just how much of a favourite this book was to me when I had it as child. This book is really lots of fun to read and learn for children and I hope Zoe will one day remember it as fondly as I do.

can't go wrong with Richard Scarry

It is so much fun to read books to your children that you loved as a child and to see them get as much entertainment out of as you did and the greatest part is you still enjoy it.

Richard Scarry has great books

Have not given this book to my grandchildren yet but they have many Richard Scarry books and love them. I paged throught this one and also had read reviews on it and it seems to be another winner.

One of the best children's books ever

My three children, who are now grown with children of their own, loved this book. They delighted in pointing out things that they recognized and never tired of reading it. We still have books from when they were small, but this one fell apart from constant use. I've been looking for this book now for my grandchildren to enjoy. Richard Scarry books should never be out of publication.

Outstanding

I wish that Golden books would put Scarry's fine works on Publish on Demand, then they would see that we love all of his works, not just the recent ones. I am busy trying to repair my 1970 copy of this book so that my children can enjoy it as much as I did.
