I loved this book when I was a little girl and now I enjoy reading it to my son. It features three stories starring Mitzi and her baby brother Jacob. In the stories, Mitzi experiences an illness, attempts to take a cab to Grandma's with Jacob, and meets the President. The stories are clever and the colorful illustrations add to the vividness of the tales.
My grandmother read this to me when I was little, and now my 2 and 4 year old love it too. They like the long breathless sentences, repeating all the little details. The pictures are a bit...odd...(little kids with the faces of old people)...but that's the only negative I can think of, and the stories are such fun that I can overlook that!
"Tell Me A Mitzi" was the favorite story of my daughter and now I was able to send it to my grand-daughter to enjoy. The stories are a slice of a little girls everyday life. The illustrations are unusual...that is the drawings of the people are very interesting and fun. Great book!
This was a favorite of mine as a little girl. It includes 3 stories told by Martha's mother about "Mitzi" and her family. My 3 year old daughter loves the book too! Though a bit wordy for such a youngster, she enjoys the detailed and humorous pictures. I believe she'll slowly grow into the book and eventually like reading it to herself!
I loved this book as a child and now I love reading it to my students and my own kids. These stories are marvelous to read aloud to children. The repetitive cadences make the silliness that much more fun. The pictures are also great. They have so many tiny little details that can absorb kids for hours. SIMILAR ITEMS: |
