Customer Reviews

Great illustrations and story about showing appreciation for others

I attempt to find quality books that focus on salamanders and amphibians to review at my blog "a salamander blog" at [...]. This book was an exceptional find which I highly recommend. It had great illustrations, a valuable story about helping others without the expectation of a reward and examined the benefit of taking time alone in thought to think about how to reach a goal.

Loved it, love it, will love it!

This book is one of the keepers - even when my kids get too old to be read to - this one is staying on the book shelf for my grandkids! Wonderful message, goofy characters, great illustrations!

Even at 26 years old I learnt a lesson from this!

Absolutely wonderful, if children can grasp the message in this book then when growing up and beginning friendships it will be a whole lot easier. I loved it! The graphics were brilliant and story simple but true!

Heart-warming, inspiring, and beautiful

If you're child is between 3 and 8 buy him/her this wonderfully told and illustrated book. The child will love it (and so will you!).
