Read it, and bought more in the series and have read more. A must-read for this age range!

If acting out stories is any indication of how well my children liked this book, it was REALLY liked! Fun. Classic. Highly recommend it.

My two oldest children, ages four and five, loved listening to this book! (Now they want to read the next book in the series.) My husband and I enjoyed sharing this book with the kids!

While I adored this book as a child it seems my children could do without. It hasn't captured their attention like some of the others...perhaps because they are a bit too young?

This was a great book to start off our homeschooling year. I read it to all my kids, and even my older ones found it interesting. I enjoyed the fact that it was easy to keep my little ones engaged too.

My five-year-old son loves this book. The only difficult thing has been not reading the whole thing in one sitting. It was a fabulous way to start our kindergarten year together.

This is the first chapter book I've read to my 4 year old and she loves it! I didn't think she'd be ready for chapter books yet, but she is! So glad you included this book in the curriculum!

I read this to my daughters when they were 4 and 6 and they loved the book as much as I did when I read it as a child. We've actually already read it twice this year within a two month period! We will read it again next year, too!

Hard not to love this story! My dd5 and ds3 both listened well and remembered the story! We have read the sequel!

My daughter was sold on homeschooling after enjoying this book together.
