Customer Reviews

I like Lionni, but not enough to buy his entire collection separately!

I'm glad for the compilation. It's true that they took out some images from his stories. However, this is something you see in *all* compilations, otherwise they wouldn't be any cheaper than buying the books separately and they'd be huge, too! So either they take out whole pages, text and all; or they cut the images down so you can hardly see them; or they do as they did here - they keep the text intact and the pictures the right size, but take out some images. And you know what? I can live with that. Is it a perfect solution? Nothing is. I suggest any book you're *really* attached to, you buy separately so you have it intact.

A must for your collection!

This compilation of stories is completely delightful. They warm your heart and put a smile on your face. My husband used to read them to me when I was SO pregnant I could not sleep. And now we continue to read them to our wonderful daughter Lucy. I get this book as a present for all my pregnant friends. It is a must for your collection.
