5.0 out of 5 stars New Fan,
September 9, 2004
This review is from: Miss Suzy (Hardcover)
I read the raving reviews of this book and curiosity got the best of me. Our library did not have a copy so I had to buy it to see why every reviewer gave 5 stars! It is a nice book that is actually well written and a delight to read. I knew nothing of this book until I bought it, but I think 30 years from now this will be one of the books that my daughter looks back on fondly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Miss Suzy where are you?,
January 10, 2000
Although itÕs been almost 30 some years since I have seen a copy of this book itÕs still burned into my mind. Miss Suzy is a wonderful story of a Squirrel almost bullied from her treehouse. She recruits the help of some toy soldiers long packed away in the attic. Miss Suzy is a great children's book! This was the book I lived in as a child.

5.0 out of 5 stars Five PLUS stars!,
November 24, 2005
This review is from: Miss Suzy (Hardcover)
This was my very favorite book as a small child, and I love sharing it with my daughter now! I was three when I discovered Miss Suzy in preschool. Our teacher let a different child pick a book for the class each day, and every time it was my turn, I wanted her to read "Miss Suzy"! I still have two copies from my childhood, but I was thrilled when the anniversary edition was released, and I could buy a new copy (plus two backups, just in case!) for my daughter! The illustrations are captivating, and the story of kindness and helping others hits home with kids. And Miriam Young makes this lesson interesting for children by incorporating toy soldiers, a dollhouse with a four poster bed and squirrels, among other things that children find fascinating. What a wonderful book, and what joy I find in reading it to my child! This book, in my opinion, is a book all children (especially little girls!) should read!
