I chose this book because I loved it when I was a kid and I wanted my grandchild to enjoy it also. After sending it to my grandchild and decided that I wanted to have a copy for myself and thought how nice it would be to reread this likable and sweet story again. Its for children ages 2-50. No joke, I have put it on my coffee table as the cutest coffee table book ever! Teaches kids colors, spacial definitions, sizes,and numbers but really without trying to be educational it puts a smile on every readers face no matter your age. We need more books like this for children instead of books about king and king.Pleeeeze. I give it a 5.
