This is an oldie but a goodie. It’s exciting to me to read all these stories that were narrated to me repeatedly by my father when I was a kid (we didn’t have access to picture books), using various voices and adding interesting details each time, are all available as picture books here that I can read aloud to my children. I absolutely loved the art in this particular edition. The colors were bright and the pictures were so beautiful that they inspired me to take out my own paints and brushes to paint with my kids. The underlying message itself is timeless and powerful ❤️
