With all the vitality of a jump-rope rhyme, the whole community pours in with remedies for Rachel's blister, and all romp across the page in lively illustrations. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is so fun to read and my 2.5 year old daughter loves to hear it. I also love that the main characters are female and the hero in the end (the queen- female) is described as very smart. The doctor in the book is also female, although it's a little hard to tell b/c of the old-fashioned illustrations. PS- I have not listened to the cassette part so I can't comment on that.
delightful, lyrical silliness

The text and illustrations are both great, and it holds my 8 month old daughter's attention despite its length. It will be even more fun to read to her as she gets older and can find Rachel's cat on each page, laugh at the silly blister remedies, and eventually read the great rhymes along with me. I know I'll have this terrific book memorized soon, and won't mind endless repetitions over the years.

Oh what a true delight it is to read this book! It has to be one of my favorites. It never fails to delight both the reader and the listener. Chaos, calamity, consideration and correction. This book is pure fun! Thank you Amy MacDonald!
