5-0 out of 5 stars A real gem

3-0 out of 5 stars A Mild, but Pleasing, Freddy
Sometimes Mr. Brooks was able to come up with excellent titles for his novels; "Freddy and the Ignormus" will arouse anyone's curiousity, and "Wiggins for President" fairly jumps off the shelf.On the other hand, sometimes he wasn't; a neophyte reader discovering the title "Freddy and Mr. Camphor" on the library shelf might forgivably be tempted to shove it back in.Luckily, the book is stronger than the title.5-0 out of 5 stars Freddy Takes Care
It is hard to imagine it happening to Freddy the Pig, but gradually his busy life as pig, poet, banker, detective, and newspaperman was wearing him out.Even his good friend Jinx the Cat could see that Freddy needed a change.But Freddy didn't see how he could leave all his responsibilities.Finally, his salvation came in the form of a help wanted advertisement for a caretaker at the estate of the wealthy Mr. Jimson Camphor.5-0 out of 5 stars Two foretrotters up for Freddy and Mr. Camphor!
Long after Walter Brooks has earned his eternal reward, he ismaking a paradise here on earth for fans of Freddy!Freddy andMr. Camphor is one of the best Freddy's out there.If you don't love Freddy, you'll love Mr.Camphor.If you don't love Mr. Camphor, there's always Bannister to adore.If not Bannister, well, there's Mrs. Wiggins, or Jinx, or the Webbs, or cousin Augustus and his relatives. One thing is certain, you won't leave this book without a new friend.Walter Brooks does for the animal kingdom what PG Wodehouse does for humankind by creating a happy fantasyland where nothing ever goes so wrong that it can't be undone, and it is always undone with wit and sagacity. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars The Princess Grows a Garden
Princess Chamomile may be a princess but she doesn't mind getting dirty!Princess Chamomile and Milchoir (the gardener) plant a garden designed bythe Princess.It takes a long time to create the garden - but it is worththe wait.This book is great for readers from 7 years and up and is agreat book for all people interested in gardens and princesses!Myfavorite part of the story is when Princess Chamomile admits that shedidn't play the piano well because she was day-dreaming.Knowing thatsomeone else feels that way may let kids understand that a little whimseyinstead of perfection is perfectly okay.It is also a good story to teachpatience - and that good things take a while to come true.Theillustrations are perky and fit the charm of the story.This is adelightful book and a good way to get students back into the swing ofreading for this school year. ...

2-0 out of 5 stars Garden Gnome will kill you in your sleep! (with a rake)
I came across this book at ... and could not pass up the opportunity! It was the perfect Christmas gag gift for my sister, complete with a stalker garden gnome wielding a deadly rake. It's the creepiest book I have ever seen and I can't believe someone would read this to their young child, or pay more than a dollar for it. Especially creepy is the picture of the gnome staring at the little girl from outside her window. Oh, and when he rises from the grave. That's scary too.

5-0 out of 5 stars Full of character and beauty
Books that have no words are rare but a real treasure as they allow the child's (and adults!) imagination to flourish.This book also has lively, vibrant illustrations.All the characters are portrayed gently with compassion and tenderness.We have also found this book to hold some humorous elements, as well.Really an unusual, fun book to share with a child.My toddler loves it.

5-0 out of 5 stars An Instant Classic of Children's Garden Literature
Although this is a story without words (except the "Good night, Garden Gnome" that divides the 2 parts of the story), it deserves a place in the pantheon of the best of children's garden literature.Henterly's rich, detailed, and deeply saturated watercolor paintings fill each page, sometimes in a 2-page spread.The narrative has drama, comedy, pathos, and a supernatural slant that captures the garden as a place of magic.The Garden Gnome has a great work ethic; he smiles through his labors.He's obviously filled with love as he aids all the garden creatures of the night, saves a lost teddy bear, and suffers various humorous indignities.I bought this book for my little niece, but I'll have to keep it for myself and buy her another copy.I think I would encourage little children to tell their own version of the story aloud as they turn the pages -- to switch places and "read" it to whomever usually reads them their stories.You'll never pass a garden gnome again without smiling to yourself! ...

Editorial Review

One night young Rosalinda wakes up to a "Wsss--shhh--snap!" outside. She slips out of bed and peers out the front door into the darkness. Way back by the lemon tree, something is moving. It's a man stuffing lemons, her very own lemons, into a cloth sack! To make matters worse, by the end of the week her lemon tree is very sick. As she wanders through the Mexican countryside seeking tree-healing advice, she sees the mysterious Night Man at the Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Under the Lemon Moon- a wonderful book
Edith Hope Fine's Under the Lemon Moon is a book with a big heart. Readers of all ages will enjoy this modern day folk tale. There is much to be learned, and even more to be felt from the pages of this book. The beautifully rendered illustrations are a lovely compliment to the book's poetic text. Under the Lemon Moon isa touching, beautiful and memorable read. This book would be a great addition to your library- and a great gift for kids of all ages.

5-0 out of 5 stars Twin four-year-olds love it -- so will your kids
I have been reading "Under The Lemon Moon" to four-year-old twins before bed every night this week. When we read, they become entranced by the story. They also enjoy searching for the characters in the beautifulillustrations. There are many lessons to be learned from this story,including forgiveness.I highly recommend this book!

5-0 out of 5 stars A charming tale heartwarming for both child and parent
This engaging book is a wonderful tool to help young children gain brief insight into Mexican culture. With basic Spanish included in a glossary, reading Under the Lemon Moon to your children may be the perfect way tostimulate interest in and discussion of foreign language. Perhaps moresignificant than exposure to other cultures, this entertaining tale teachesinitiative, principles, and respect. The harmonious blend of captivatingartwork and thoughtful plot make this story a must for all children overthe age of three. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars discrimination
this book is for ages 8 and under, my question is why, adults seem to actually enjoy this book more then kids, as it reminds them of the powerful power and control they have over them. for example when the bunny felt powerful because he grew the biggest strawberries, the power was taken away, by his mom who forced him to go sleep

5-0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book with great lessons
Perhaps I am biased given that I am also an Oliver.However, inGood Job, Oliver, the combination of repitition, beautiful illustration (I have the hardcover version) and a very positive message of not letting challenges overwhelm you is very uplifting.I always feel revitalized after I read it.I can not recommend it more strongly.

5-0 out of 5 stars beautiful and thought provoking
This book is so pretty, you will find something new to look at each time you read it.The beauty does not outweigh the messages that you can be little and still accomplish more than the bigger "bunnies", and also that by stoping and thinking you can find the solution to problems.Oliver saves the day and then shares his good fortune...multiple messages, great pictures, all around enjoyable! ...
