review 1: This book is great! It emphasizes cultural diversity, encouraging children to simply be themselves and not worry about different skin color or languages. It reaches out to all different learning types as it has collections of stories, songs, and poems to be chosen from. I feel that this could be used during a lesson on culture to show students that they shouldn't be ashamed of who they are. I haven't had a chance to use this book as of yet, but it's definitely on my "to do" list.
review 2: This one came across my radar when my girls were small and became a favorite with them and also wtih me. Clever and thought provoking and grounded in good common sense approaches to growing good character. Of course the edition we had was the original one in the 1970's ... moreor 1980's? but this is the same cover. We also had the recording -- you know, those big 33 1/3 RPM vinyl things in a nice cardboard sleeve that looked just like the book cover here. I can still sing along in my head at times -- that's how often it was played. less
