I read this book for a report I wrote in elementary/middle school and I still remember it to this day. I purchased a copy so I could add it to my collection for teaching ESL.

It was a great book when originally printed but some things are quite outdated now.  Still a good read though

I read this book shortly after it came out when I was a teenager. This book is the book that fueled my need to read. My mind had never been challenged by a book until rose madder. But, there were a ton of typos and errors on the ebook version

I loved this book as a child! When our library was giving it away I got it. Sadly my copy over the years has taken a beating. I would love to see it reprinted. How can we get that done?

Loved this book! I wanted to make sure I read it before I watched the show so out wouldn't be ruined for me. It was a quick and very enjoyable read. I didn't much care for the way it ended, but that was definitely not enough to ruin it for me. I've spoke to many people who read this many years ago and felt it was an amazing read at both points in their life but made even more of an impact reading it years later. It's the kinda book that would seem as if it was written recently whenever you read it. While not realistic, it's very relatable to real life.  I can't wait to ready this again years from now and have it come to life in a new and different way.

I had a paperback copy and re-read this book enough times that it fell apart. I obviously really enjoyed it at that time. I just bought the Kindle version and had a few issues mostly formatting. The scene or location would change without any real indicator. It could be because this book was written when e-books were not popular and not enough editing was done when it was converted to this format. I also had a few moments when details that were from another era pulled me from the story. However, it is a great book and story.

I read this book when it originally came out about 25 years ago. I have always told everyone it's my all time favorite book. In recommending it to someone recently (who thought it was amazing) I decided to re-read it again. It was just as wonderful as the first time! Sadly the author passed away this year.

I first read this book when i was in the hospital.  I found it in the gift shop and i still to this day consider it one of my personal favorites.  Everytime i read it i laugh so hard i cry.  Its a shame this book is out of  print.  I know future generations would love to read this book.

This is one of my favorite books - although I hardly ever tell people that because the title is so girly (and I am so not girly), and all they know about the book is what they remember from the movie. Anyway, I read it at just the right time growing up, and it made a huge impact on me. It taught me that I could act like Sara, like a "princess," no matter how people treated me - and I would be the stronger and the better for it. Reading it years later, I found it to be quite dated, but the messages ring as true now as they ever did before. I highly recommend it.

I read this as a hardcover decades ago when it came out and loved it. And then when... the Woody Allen movie version ("Bananas") was released I was pissed that he didn't give the book any credit.
I picked up another hard cover about ten years ago to give to a friend who was joining the... Peace Corps. She loved it, too.
While I'm elated it's out in e-Kindle, I'd really like them to offer a print version. "On demand" publication is now viable and this would be a perfect offering.

I loved this book when it came out in the '80s.  Reading it was a life-altering experience for me.  I made permanent changes in the way I ate as a result of reading this book.  But as much as I loved the book then, it's a product of its time, and we now know so much more about nutrition and what comprises a healthy diet.  I recently browsed through it again just out of curiosity and was dismayed by some of the things I read, which I now know are wrong.  Read it with a grain of salt--or Mrs. Dash's.  Whatever.

I loved this book the first time I read it, so much so that I couldn't put it down until I was done. When done that time, as much as I had loved it, I was a bit disappointed by one plot point, which I won't share so as to avoid spoilers, but it was right right at the end, so a great loved turned into a disappointing moment at the denouement.

When the movie came out I decided to read the book again, in advance of seeing the movie (which I still haven't seen, much to my own amusement.) I enjoyed the book even more the second time, I think, in part, because of the nature of the book I had that type of advance information which made ever moment all the more precious to me, much as the nature of the plot makes each moment so precious to each of the leads.

I've upgraded my rating from a four to a five on this one, and suggest that the book not only be read by anybody who enjoys any form of time travel and books around personal relationships (a nice way to say "love stories" without turning off readers who "hate love stories") but read more than once - and reread by anybody who wasn't 110% enthusiastic the first time.

I read this book when I was about 8 and absolutely loved it.  Many modern libraries don't have this book, so a lot of the modern generation of kids has never seen this book.  Great book, wonderful drawings, and about the most unique, creative plot I have ever encountered in a children's book.  Bring it back into print!

This was one of my favorite books growing up. Such a simple concept yet endlessly engaging. Watching what other people did with the same shape was even more fun than doing it yourself.  If anyone has this book please let me know I'd love to collect any old editions. BTW brought to you by the same brilliant quirky mind that created 'Teeth Are Good things to Have'

This is one of my favorite books from Childhood. I got it from the library over and over again. Now I have kids and I found out that my wife had a copy. Hers was falling apart after long use. I decided to get a brand new copy (and D'aulaire's Norse Mythology) for me and my kids.

Loved reading it this time as much as the first time, when it first came out.

I bought this book years ago when it first came out and loved it then. My opinion is still the same. Great reading
