The Wheels on the Bus from Dutton Children's Books Price: $13.29 Customer Review:  I first bought this book for my 10 year old son in 1993. I still have the book, although it is worn and tattered. The pages are colorful and interactive, and if you study the book, you will see the passengers on the bus have their own "story" to tell as they ride the bus. You can't help but to sing... |

Knick-Knack Paddywhack: A Moving Parts Book (New York Times Best Illustrated Books) from Dutton Books Price: $13.29 Customer Review: My three year old son loves this book and we read it every night. He is constantly finding new things to open, close, move, etc. After about 2 months of constant use, one of the tabs finally broke, which is much better than other lift/move books he has. Highly recommend this book! |

Hansel and Gretel from Dutton Books Price: $12.59 Customer Review:  Hansel and Gretel is my fav fairy tales. Almost all stories of Grimm have moral values and this one is no exception.

The Enchanted Castle (Books of Wonder) from HarperCollins Price: $16.99 Customer Review: Although written around a century ago, this still remains one of the great classics of Children's literature. I have not read Harry Potter yet, but I would suspect this book is at least comparable. The plot is actually fairly complex -- there's humor, drama, romance, and magic. It can be read by... |

How I Hunted the Little Fellows from Putnam Pub Group (J) Price: $8.95 Customer Review:  Illustrated beautifully by Paul Zelinsky, the book has its strengths and its weaknesses. Looking at the beautiful pen and ink drawings, comparisons to Chris Van Allsberg come immediately to mind. Zelinsky has drawn characters that are beautifully lifelike and real. The story itself leaves a bit to... |
