We Love Bold Lady!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
My 3-year old daughter loves "Bold Lady," maybe even as much as I do! The vibrant colors of Harper's art with the creative, rhyming text - and a home-run ending make this book awesome. Harper updates a old classic, and like a classic, it holds a firm place in our ever-changing bookshelf!

I gave this book to a friend for her 2 year old's birthday, but didn't expect the rave reviews it got--the emails started pouring in--"thanks--my daughter loves it!" then..."she wants to read it 6 times per day!!" So I bought a copy. Then my son, now 18 months, became an addict--"star!" "moon"! "balloon!" (please note he didn't know these words two days ago) He goes for the book several times a day. But now I'm addicted too--the illustrations are magnificent, with wonderful color, detail, and depth that captivates even very young children, not unlike Richard Scarry. The text is charming, rythmic, and inspirational (which my son will hopefully appreciate later.) We own a lot of books, but very few get thrown in my lap as often as this; I'm ordering all her books, hoping they are as much fun as this!!
excellent.

Instills in kids and parents the idea that to pursue the stars and beyond is a thing to do. No goal is too distant or not worth the effort.
