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.

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!

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!

Herman the Helper is brilliant on so many levels. He is like the second coming of Jesus in cute little green octopus form. Look out for the random Chinese dragon!

Oh yeah - and Jose Aruego and Ariane Dewey are the best children's book illustrators ever.

I read this book when I was in the first grade and have been searching for it ever since! Herman is a charmingly colorful octopus who is always willing to help! And AMAZON's got him!!!

I was young when I first heard the story of Herman the Helper. I liked the way the pictures and words made me feel so good inside. Although the book was on loan from the library and had to be returned, my persistent parents looked everywhere for the book and finally located it in California. The book made its way back home with them in NY, and I still have it, 20 years later!

This was a book I had my mother read to me hundreds of times when I was young and 15 years later, I found it again. A classic.

This was my favorite book as a child. I lost the original copy, and didn't know if it was a common book that could be found again (mine was a retired library copy). When I found this book again, I was overjoyed! While I don't have children yet, I can't wait to read this to them when I do!

This book was one of my daughter's all time favorites as she was growing up. I've now given it to her to read to her first child, due in November!
