5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Tales of Brer Rabbit by David Borgenisht, April 13, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Classic Tales of Brer Rabbit: From the Collected Stories of Joel Chandler Harris (Hardcover)
I use this book in my first grade class to go along with a Brer Rabbit story in our textbook. The students loved the stories about the many different ways Brer Rabbit tricked his neighbors, especially the story about the tar baby. It has extraordinary illustrations that would captivate the attention of any child, even ones with short attention spans. I think it is a "must have" addition to a child's or teacher's personal library. What a wonderful classic to share!

This review is from: The Classic Tales of Brer Rabbit: From the Collected Stories of Joel Chandler Harris (Hardcover)
After visiting Disney World last year my 4 year old daughter kept after me to retell the story of Brer Rabbit and the tar baby, I was so pleased to find this book with its great illustrations. When we read this book before bed we just can't read one. My daughter likes all the stories not just the Tar Baby and the poster is great too.

This review is from: The Classic Tales of Brer Rabbit: From the Collected Stories of Joel Chandler Harris (Hardcover)
I loved these stories growing up and missed them when I started reading to my sons. I'm glad they are still around. Lessons are hidden in many of the stories, but not as blatent as many new childrens books seem to be.

Great stuff. Came with a poster, too!
