5.0 out of 5 stars Herman the Helper, December 21, 2006
This review is from: Herman the Helper (Paperback)
Wonderful book for toddlers. Teaches the pure joy of giving and plants the seed to look for ways of helping others. It is fun interactively - counting, hide & seek Herman, colors & shapes and problem solving.

5.0 out of 5 stars This imaginative and colorful story is a children's classic., April 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Herman the Helper (Paperback)
Herman the Helper was my favorite book as a little girl, and I was thrilled to find it at Amazon. The illustrations are so colorful and inviting; I used to spend hours with this book. The story is also upbeat and very charming, so if you have kids, or if you still feel like one, you'll love Herman!

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite book when I was little, March 1, 2011
This review is from: Herman the Helper (Paperback)
This was my all time favorite book when I was little. I would check this out of the library almost every week so I could read it over and over. I'm 27 now and haven't seen the book since I was young but still have memories of the vivid illustrations. Great read for the kids!
