People don't understand that Puerto Rico works under the same federal laws, we have the same USPS and the only bad thig is that they don't send merchandise to Puerto Rico thinking the cost was going to be mayor when the cost to send a book like that is 1.22

Gone to the top of my list

This book is on my favorite book shelf for this month at the bookstore in which I work. My son reads to his daughter and I suggested this book.

Wonderful to Read Aloud

I read this book to my 7 year old twin girls, and the three of us loved it. The vocabulary, the humor, the characters were all wonderful. I have high hopes that the author will continue to write children's books.
