Five Stars
Stocking our media center with award books we don't have.

Could become a family favorite for you too.
A gift for my daughter, who is the queen of our hearts. A classic.

Nearly just like First Grade
I remember this book fondly from the library of my first grade classroom. This is exactly the same except I recall the school copy as having more coloured pictures...? In any case, brings back fond memories and my children love it.

Love the illustrations
I have been collecting the award winning books back to their conception and have enjoyed looking at the way illustrations have changed over time. I was disappointed in the story line and surprised that a book about foreign gods would have been accepted at that time. I will more than likely not share this book with the grand kids.
