Great Reading for children as well as adults.  Good history presented in an entertaining and adventurous manner.  Thank you for some great books with information that kids may not be getting in our public school system.

This is certainly both a well written and well-illustrated book that not only appeals to the young but to older audiences as well. The story is splendid in it not only teaches children about the thrill and pleasure of giving to others but also it's a simply fun story to read.  The added bonus of such lovely illustations makes it even better. Great work.

I LOVE these stories for children!  I have read them to my children and now am reading them (and purchasing them) to and for my grandchildren!  They are simple enough for children to understand, but so interesting for adults to read.  They're definitely worth the price!

I always find the best children's books are even better for adults, and this is no exception; it is one of the best books I have read in a long time, even though I got it with my children in mind.  I love the combination of a well-observed historical setting, interesting plot twists and turns, all combined with the backdrop of Shakespeare's theatre.  There is wonderfully vivid description and I was completely drawn into the story.  The relationships between the main young characters are very tender and well drawn.  In this modern day, it was also refreshing to find a book in which difficult moral choices had to be faced.  Overall extremely uplifting.

This is a very great children's book, but I have come to find many adults enjoying this also. There is a great story behind the pages with great illustrations, and a great overall message. Everyone should buy a copy of this. It would make a really cool personal buy, or a fun uplifting gift for someone else.

This is a WONDERFUL book for children of all ages.  It comes as an Audible (listen to sample) or a hard covered.  Well written, giving inspiring synopses of 40 African American women, some well known, some unknown.  I LOVE the illustrations -- creative, with significant backdrops and appropriate costuming.  I recommend as bedtime reading for the young and/or readers about 4th grade.  Though my grandchildren (12 & 14) are good readers, I think they'd enjoy reading and hearing these stories.

The Littlest Elf: Marvin McGee and the Candle of Fate is a book for adults and children of all ages. With a story line that proves even small elves can do great things, there is also a universal message to be enjoyed by all readers. Written as a poem and with a Christmas theme, the delightful illustrations in this book are Disney-like in quality. Each page comes alive with bright, happy colors with Santa and the elves serving as the main characters along with the diminutive Marvin McGee. I initially purchased this book for my 4 and 5-year old grandchildren, but liked it so much I am buying six more copies to give to my clients' grandchildren instead of a boring gift basket.  This is a book that children will treasure for years and years. After I first read it to my 4-year old grandson, he wanted me to read it again and again!  This is the highest possible praise for a children's book.

This is a great children's book but an even better book for adults. It taught me a valuable lesson about pride. Very cleverly and eloquently written. I would agree that the age range is a little off. I would say it is best understood and appreciated by ages 8 up to 108. I loved it!

A children's book that adults can enjoy immensely! Striking black and white prints by the author add much to the story.  Tove Jansson has created a whole world full of great characters that we can recognize in our own lives in spite of the sometimes magical events.

Aesop's 1st Book of Childhood Adventures is a joy both for children and adults!  The pictures are captivating and the stories are motivational.  The stories help to create discussions about perseverance, working hard, and other life lessons that are important for children.  I bought the book for my nephew and look forward to reading it to him soon!
