Donna E. (What can I say - I love the Borrowers and look for them in my own home - and I'm of retirement age. Read this book and you'll love them too.
Where do things disappear to? The Borrowers may have taken the missing pins and match boxes. This is one of my favorite books, both of adult's and children's literature. A classic.
Classic book (with lovely line drawings) for 8-12 yr olds. The book IS better than the movie -- at least have your kids read the book first!
An American Library Association Distinguished book. The first of the series
