Customer Reviews

An excellent introduction to Uncle Wiggily!

My 5 year old son loves to hear Uncle Wiggily stories and this slim volume contains some very good ones featuring our favorite characters, Uncle Wiggily, Nurse Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy and the whole Littletail family!These stories are delightful for parents and children alike! They teach valuable lessons and are quite charming! After you read this little book graduate to the big Uncle Wiggily books like "Uncle Wiggily's Automobile" in which Uncle Wiggily sets out on a series of adventures! I encourage everyone to get aquainted with the fabulous stories of Howard Garis! Uncle Wiggily is wonderful!

Fabulous bedtime stories

This is a slight and very inexpensive book, but has proved to be a hefty and well-loved book in my house. The stories are short--about 2 to 3 pages each. They are well written for reading out loud, very funny and full of surprises and suspense. Each tale ends (like The Arabian Nights stories) at a suspenseful point and promises the children that if they behave they'll get to hear how the event will unfold. Since they are short, one can read two or three stories each night, and this book can last a week. My 6 year old daughter picked up the book (after I've finished reading it) and started to read it herself. My four year old loves it. And the stories carry some important themes--such as be careful what you tell a stranger (in this case a hungry cat) yet they were not overly preachy, nor do the themes intrudes upon the drama of each story.This book is a great value all around. Worth more than [price] for sure!
