Editorial Review: Product Description: Illus. in full color. Encourages children to find out about themselves, while having fun writing and drawing their own biographies. Amazon.com Review: One of the titles for the younger crowd in the Beginners Books series, My Book About Me has an unusual interactive twist--you make it up as you go along. On each page there's something new to complete, from "I weigh ___ pounds" to "My teeth. I counted them. I have ___ up top. I have ___ downstairs." It's a simple idea, but with a surprising amount of educational value--getting children to name their home country, to recognize and draw in the color of their own eyes, learn their telephone number and address, to name favorite clothes, foods, and colors, and more. Finally, there's a two-page spread where each owner of the book can write his or her own story. Illustrator Roy McKie's style is halfway between the P.D. Eastman of Are You My Mother and the mainstream Seuss of Cat in the Hat and Thidwick: The Big-Hearted Moose. (Ages 4 to 8) --Richard Farr Average Rating:
 Rating: - Great book!My sister and I had this book when we were kids. She filled hers out when she was about 5 (1976) and I did mine when I was 8 (1986). My mom saved them and it was so fun to go through when she brought them out! The book is great. It allows kids to draw a picture, write a story and answer questions about themselves. Even if they aren't reading yet it's something parents and kids can work on together. Somethings are a little harder to figure out (# of steps to closest store) but it ... Read More: Rating: - Theodore Giesel (Dr Seuss) at his bestWonderful book! I've bought three copies over the years for three of my kids/grandkids when they were 5 or 6 years old. It's their book, to write the answers in (in fact the first thing is to have the kid write his name in it!), to read and figure out, etc. Highly recommended both for the parent/grandparent - and, more importantly, for the kid. Rating: - Dr. Seuss at it's bestMy Book About Me This book is great! My young reader loves the interactiveness of being able to count all the steps in the house, find out the color of his eyes and tell all the things about his life at this moment. I'm thinking about adding some scrapbook pages for each year for some of the questions that will change over time. The best part is, I can show him My Book About Me that I completed in the 1970's. Rating: - Still A Great BookI bought this book for my daughter who is now 41 years old. My youngest grandson was visiting and he found the book (which I had saved) and just loved it. Everytime he comes he wants to read and look at the book. He is five years old and this Halloween instead of giving him candy, I bought him this book to put in his Halloween bag. It's better than any candy and it certainly lasts longer. Rating: - a gift from GrammaWe had this same book for our daughter when she was about [...] old. Her children found it recently and loved reading about their mom. I was delighted to find it still in print, so ordered a copy for each of my grand children so that "their" children may have a similar delightful experience reading about them thirty years from now. It is a fun book to fill in with large Dr. Seuss illustrations and silly suggestions. I'm hoping it will be a favorite Christmas present for them this year. |
