5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I was looking for., June 30, 2006
I teach drama to children ages 9-12. It was nice to find something that did not play down to them and was simple to memorize and stage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great plays for kids., November 4, 2006
By love great books (Vancouver, WA) - See all my reviews
I took this book to the beach for the kids to have something to do if the weather turned bad, it did, and the whole family loved it. The kids got to be creative and work together to put on a play for the rest of the family. Even my [...] year old got to play a part (with my help) and because they are familiar kid fairy tales, they already knew how they wanted to act out their character.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun way to involve the readers in your classroom!, August 10, 2005
By teach4life (Springfield, MA) - See all my reviews
Any type of plays/readers theater are a great way to involve all students in reading. My students enjoy these stories very much. This is a great way to make reading fun for students and can be used in the classroom with reading groups/whole group or at home with different family members reading different parts, a great way to practice reading and spend time together. Readers of all ages will get a kick out of reading these very adorable plays.
