Customer Reviews

Simply wonderful!!!! - By: Mazza, 26 Aug 2008
I read this book for two children I was babysitting on Saturday night. I think I enjoyed it more than them! What a fab idea, perfectly written & illustrated. I'm going to be buying this for all the children I know this Christmas.
AWESOME! - By: J. Morgan, 26 Jun 2008
Read this book as a child - it was a true favourite of all the family! Still love it now (at university!)
Lovely book! - By: P. T. Wahlberg, 16 Jan 2008
Lovely book. Great pictures. Our children love it.
It is one of my favourites.
Grown into it. - By: TG, 22 Oct 2007
I bought this a few months back but my boy never really got into it until now : he is 3 1/2. The rhyming story is OK, as is the gift set but the hook is obviously the letters.
Of these Goldilock's apology (however badly spelt), Cinderella's book deal & the birthday card are genius. The others are OK but it's these 3 which my boy firmly believes are real. It does lead to the difficult question why we have Goldilocks birthday money but, I am sure, there are trickier questions to come.


Great idea, but... - By: Guyon Roche, 29 Sep 2007
When we first saw this book we thought it was a great idea - a great way to introduce letters, post cards & the likes to our children.
However, reading some of the letters includedin the book we came across sentences like "I am very sory indeed that I cam into your house & ate Baby Bears porij." Surelyin a book intended to teach children to read, the spelling & grammar should be a good example. We stopped when we came across Jack's post card to the giant...
"Dear Giant Bigg,
having a nice time - me, my mum & your hen what lays the golden eggs. (It's better than traveller's cheques.) Saw a bloke as we was flying down - he was bigger than you! I've took note of his address. Take care of yourself - & your talking harp - I'll be back for that one of these days, I shouldn't wonder.
Bye for now - your (very) little pal, Jack"
Obviously Jack's ill gotten gains have not been put towards teaching him how to write. Nor does he seem to have a conscience as he writes so flippantly about his next planned crime.
It's such a shame that a good idea like this has been spoilt by such poor examples of English.
