Customer Reviews

Excellent bedtime storybook!

My four year old daughter and I LOVED this collection of toy stories. I read two books or stories to my daughter before bedtime each night and she was very eager for more stories from this book these past few nights. I liked the fact that the stories were short enough to read at bedtime. The illustrations were very colorful and sweet. This book might be more of a girl storybook as there are several books about dolls but if your child loves stories about toys that come alive and have adventures, this is the book for you!
