Another awesome book by Demi!
I love Demi's books! Not only are Demi's books beautiful but are filled with lots of wonderful facts and information on what different animals, fish and insects represent to the people of China! An awesome book to add to your child's library!

Absolutely beautiful!
The talented artist, Demi, has outdone herself in this latest book. It's a wonderful showcase of beautiful and brightly colored chinese kites incorporated into a story of chinese traditions that children canunderstand and appreciate.Imagine my daughter's surprise when she sawseveral kites in this book identical to those we have hanging on our wallsat home.I highly recommend buying this book! ...

A pleasing book
Ming-Ju Sun is a favorite paper doll artist of mine, and this book helps show why.The lovely lines and clean colors show why the kimono, while no longer a part of a modern Japanese wardrobe, will forever be concidered a wonderful artform.

dominoaddition
Ilikedthis bookbecause it canteach littlekids addition.Sothayknowhow todo pluses. Ithasa greatendingonit.Thisbookgoesallthe way to twelve. Alotofkidswouldrealylikethis book. Maybe all thelittle kidsonearthwouldrealylikethisbooka lot.

great idea!
Using dominoes is a great tool for teaching young children how to add. Perfect for 4-5 year olds....this book was too basic for my first grader. The only problem is you're limited to combinations up to 6. For example, you are not able to make 10 using 7 plus 3. All combinations need to be learned (obviously!) and this cannot be done with this method. It's still a fun and interesting way for young children to learn the basics.

Domino Addition
An excellent book!My 5 year old has improved dramatically thanks to this wonderful book on addition.The use of Dominos is such a clever idea.We use our own set of Dominos to practice and my son loves it. ... Read more

Teddy Bear Lovers' Delight
As the grandmother of four granddaughters, ages 7 through 13, it was hard to find one book, to give as a holiday present, that all would enjoy.Well, I found it in The Tale of Two Teddies.Each of the girls read the book (the youngest with a bit of Gramma's help), and adored it.They love the illustrations, and the gentle personalities of the two different Teddy Bears -- one American, one German.They enjoyed learning the history of the bears, and found renewed interest in their own beloved Teddy bears.Lovely book for anyone who loves a Teddy Bear. ...

Fun!And a great learning tool.
This is a wonderful book that allows kids to both giggle and learn at the same time.Not only do you make up some very interesting looking animals with this book, but it creates new names for them (a "rhinator" has the head of a rhino, a body of a manatee and a tail or an alligator!).Read more

Star Waste
Sorry, didn't like. Costumes hideous, punch-outs don't correspond with the drawings, thick white lines around the costumes,tabs aren't all in the right places to hang correctly on the doll and one outfit shows a thirdfoot protruding. I can't believe this was supervised by George Lucas! Poorquality but it is cheap so it gets one star.

LAMINATE your paper dolls!
I too have the Queen Amidalah paper doll book, and I agree with many others that the content is splendid but the quality really stinks.I can only say that Lucas should've got Tom Tiery to do it up right.But as hedidn't, my suggestions is to have your set laminated! Check your yellowpages or buy your own kit at an office supply store.

Awsome!
I really think is a really cool book. Queen Amidala's outfits in the movie are beautiful!These pictures are not as good as the real thing but are a great substitute. I thought they could have been made a little better tolast longer.But it's fine if you are leaving the book intact.I wouldbuy one to play with and one to keep as a collector's item. ... Read more

Very Simple Book at a Child's Level
This is an interesting book of projects that children can make for their doll. It is a great asset to this book that most of the projects require very few skills that a child over 6 doesn't possess. Most of the materials needed for the projects are also readily available in most homes and communities. Some of the 20 project titles include: Doll Sock Puppet, Box Doll Closet, Mittens and Ear Warmers, Doll Treats, and a Fairy Crown.Read more
