My parents taught me how to read when I was a child with this book. My sister reminded me not too long ago, and some fabulous memories came to life. Donkey Donkey was a nice little Donkey!!

I found this book to be a valuable resource to have in my family library.  When I was younger I was captivated by stories of epic adventures and heroes.  I was inspired by true epic stories from my mother and father's own personal history.  I also took courage and learned valuable lessons from books of fiction like Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and from true accounts in the scriptures and other works of non-fiction.  This book is like a lesson manual for having these types of epic stories and conversations woven into your own family conversations around the dinner table.  I think the book is definitely geared towards older children, but I found them easily adaptable for my three year old.  It was just a matter of putting the stories in my own words and then gearing the conversation to the right level.  The topics and stories in this book also work well for planning family home evening lessons.

I loved listening to the cassette tape of this when I was little, I'm pretty sure I listened so much that I wore the packaging out! I was happy to find this on CD to add to my iTunes and relive childhood memories.

I found this at the library for my kids, and it brought back many memories of the books I had as a kid. They enjoyed the stories too, so I picked this one up.

I had this book growing up and I LOVED it. (Like I mentioned in the title though, the old book covers were a little "heavier duty" than this one, but if you had nothing to compare it to, you probably would never think about it).

They say that smells are the strongest things attached to memories, and I would tend to agree. I still remember each and every smell in there. I decided that I wanted a copy of my own for nostalgia's sake, and in case I ever have kids of my own too. It's a cute story, and is a wonderful "interactive" option for bed-time reading for kids. You won't be disappointed.

My childhood centered on radio, not tv, which was virtually non-existant before I was ten.  My favorite show was "Let's Pretend" which read fairy tales--most of them so unique I have not seen them elsewhere.  One Christmas I received the very beautifully illustrated Let's Pretend book  which I treasured for many years and bitterly mourned when it disappeared.
Recently I was inspired to track it down on the web. I was delighted to find a nearly new copy of it for $300 on Amazon. (Very few copies are still in existence.) I gladly pillaged my children's inheritance.  When I unwrapped it,the sight of the green cover (I had forgotten the color) brought tears to my eyes.
My kids will probably not appreciate it because so many beautifully-illustrated books are now available, but to me  it continues to be a treasure.

I bought these books to re-read as an adult. The illustrations and cover art bring back so many childhood memories. The books are a wonderful chronicle of pioneer life and as an adult, it is interesting to re-read and hear about the life of Laura's parents and the challenges they faced.

I am still reading all of these but it has been a wonderful trip down memory lane for me. A relative read these to me when I was little, had forgotten most but am now remembering. So many happy memories of mine are in the books of my childhood.

This book bought back wonderful memories for me. My grandfather bought me a copy of this when it was originally published back in the 80's. I loved the different stories, and the different art styles in the book. I was thrilled when I randomly looked this up on Amazon and found out it had been republished.

I had this set of three very short picture books when I was little, and tonight a friend asked me what my favorite childrens book was growing up, and I remembered Bunny Planet for the first time in years(I am now 23). I can still remember all the words, and First Tomato soup is especially precious. I am going to get this for my little niece-- I am keeping my copy!

Oh, how this book brought back memories of my childhood.  I used to set my Raggedy Ann doll and her friends out at night so they could wake up when I fell to sleep.  This way they could go on with their adventures.  If Raggedy Ann had slumped over in the morning and not in the upright position I had put her in the night before, I just knew she had bee up and about the night before.  She had just not gotten back into the same position I had put her in when I went to bed.
This is a glorious book for children and their imaginations. I recommend it highly - maybe even for adults.

I purchased this book years ago for my children, and I have been searching for a new copy for my grandchild. I was happy to find a copy here on amazon for a great price. It is a great reading aid, and fun as well. Be aware that the inside pages are in black and white unlike the cover. The one drawback for me was not being able to find a hard-covered copy. Otherwise, this book brought back precious memories, and it will be sure to create even more. I would recommend it to anyone with a young child.

I read this book when I was a child , That was in the 60s or 70s.. It came with a set of encyclopedias and it is one of my favorite books.
I was looking for it for my Grandchildren to read. I was looking for it for a couple of months and hopeing that someone would sell a old copy. I was delighted to see that it has been reprinted.

I picked up this boxed set at a used book store and absolutely loved it! I vaguely remembered watching one or two of the shows in each series as a kid, so I didn't know what to expect. What I got was a fun trip down memory lane reliving the episodes I remembered and enjoying the episodes I didn't. With all the animation crap out there posing as Saturday morning television, this boxed set is a great reminder of why kids used to get up on Saturday mornings!
