I got a copy of the older version, illustrated by James Stevenson - it is a treasure. I LOVE IT! Have read it to my grandkids and they love it. GREAT humor and pictures. Wish the new one was illustrated by James Stevenson! It is a book worth owning!
A really good book.

I read this book at school. I was impressed by the language. The day before I read this book I found out that the author wrote this book about his three sons.
My favorite book as a child

This was my favorite book when I was little. Now that I'm a father, I was ecstatic that I could find my copy from 30 years ago, as I was sad to see it was out of print.

This was my favorite book when I was little. Now that I'm a father, I can't seem to find my copy (I managed to keep it for 20+ years, but I may have just had one move too many), so I was sad to see it was out of print. Hopefully it will turn up, because this book is a real gem.
Don't Miss This One

I was given this book when I was a little girl and it instantly became one of my favorite books which I still keep in my library today. The book is wildly imaginative and teaches children that limits only exist in your own mind, certainly not in the minds of others. It's a shame that this book is no longer in print because it's truly timeless. If you see it anywhere grab a copy and then torture yourself by giving it away to a child that's dear to you.
