Review # 1 was written on 2017-07-18 00:00:00 Lior Frank July 2017 - I couldn't tell if Ben was actually paying attention the first time through, but I really enjoyed the stories I heard - a few I was already familiar with, and a few where I don't think I've read the picture book. Man, picture books used to be a lot longer! There's something really lovely about the long, detailed ones, especially for listening to. Then Ben started asking to listen to this at bedtime, instead of music, and he's listened to it several more times. A hit.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-06-20 00:00:00 Bob Cslob 1983 Newbery Honor Book (for Doctor De Soto) This is a collection of some of Steig's most popular books. Shrek! This is the picture book that the movie was loosely based upon. Some of the characters are there like the donkey and the dragon and, of course, an ugly princess, but the movie definitely expanded upon the book in completely different ways. The Amazing Bone Pearl the pig finds a bone that talks and they go on an adventure together. Brave Irene Irene goes out into a snowstorm to deliver a dress to the duchess. Spinky Sulks Spinky wants to have nothing to do with the human race after his family upsets him. This was the one book I really didn't like. Doctor De Soto Dr. De Soto is a mouse dentist who normally doesn't work on animals that would eat him but makes an exception for a sore fox. But then he gets the idea that the fox really wants to eat him. Caleb & Kate Caleb and Kate are married but Caleb is turned into a dog by a witch after they fight one day and returns home as Kate's faithful dog since he can't tell her what happened.
