> 3 dayI got most of the way through the first page of this book before some crashing grammatical issues made me flip back to the copyright page to see what the trick was. Note how careful the company is never to quite state that the book is *written* or *illustrated* by Margaret or H.A. Rey. They talk a great deal about those authors, and how their beloved character returns in these stories! Etc. In fact the copyright page makes clear that both authors were quite dead by the time any of these charmless, boring stories were written in a cubicle at a Houghton Mifflin office building. Youll have trouble pushing through the pointless,page - filling spam here. The most effort put into authorship in any of these later properties consists in writing text intended to mislead the buyer into believing they have purchased a classic story - without ever *quite* saying something that could be brought against them in a court of law. In fact, the author is Houghton Mifflin - not even any one person. The stories were written by an employee, or more likely (given their meandering, tepid, pointlessness) a committee of employees. The illustrations were done by one artist in the case of a few stories, and by contracted outsourcing firm in the case of others. What fun! What a great way for your children to learn about maximizing the long-term annuity value of an intellectual character property!

> 3 dayThere is a manufacturing issue because the first page of the first story is out of order with the chapter list, so that is irritating. The stories written by people are ok, the one by the institute is odd. These are NOT original stories, just stories in the style of H.A. and Margret Rey. My daughter still enjoys them and they are nice to add to the rotation of the originals.
