Customer Reviews

Just about perfect

I first bought this book for our granddaughter (then 3). She soon had memorized every word and declared it her favorite book, an "always read" every time we visited. Same reaction from a niece (4) and another 4-year-old in Mexico. So I am buying it again for the older sister (3) of a new baby. I am sure the color and spirit of Flyaway Katie will make any slightly gray day much brighter.

Wonderful book!

We bought this for our KATIE. She is 3 1/2 and loves it, as does our 1 1/2 year old. The pictures are beautiful and the message is sweet and simple. Katie loves having a book with her name!

An imaginary delight!

This is such a charming story. Little Katie is feeling gray and what does she do, but add some color and splash to her day. The illustrations are bright and fun. And while you're enjoying the story, you're learning about colors and how to make the best of a gray day in a spunky, imaginative way. I'm reading this to my 18 month old already!

Great Imagination

My daughters (ages 2-4-6) loved this book. We checked it out at the library and they didn't want to return it. The story and the pictures are great and really fired up my kid's imagination. I'm going to get it for my 4 y.o. for Christmas since she loved it the most.

A wonderful story!

Polly Dunbar's Flyaway Katie is a wonderful story. I bought this book for my 4 year old grandaughter and it's now her favourite! So I'm keeping an eye out for Polly's next book. I shall be first in the queue!
