Indian and the Cupboard,
By Lunar Day (US) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Indian Trilogy: The Indian in the Cupboard / Return of the Indian / The Secret of the Indian (Paperback)
This is a must reading for anyone over the age of eight. Either read it to your child or get your child to read it by themselves. It soars the imagination and every child can relate to the immensity that this caretaker takes on. It is really funny in places and sad in others, but the theme is wonderful. It will go down as a children's classic. I read it to both my two children (who are now 32 and 34) and all my classes (5th and 6th graders) and it was loved by all.

These three are the best ones,
By Gryphon "Craig F." (Utah County, Utah, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Indian Trilogy: The Indian in the Cupboard / Return of the Indian / The Secret of the Indian (Paperback)
I remember reading these three in Elementary School, back in the late '80's and I really liked them. I may buy them again. The last two, numbers 4 and 5, are not as good with 4 being better than 5. I would not buy those two. Those get away from the Omri/Little Bear/Boone story more. The best is the first trilogy.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Fantastic story for avid readers of all ages!,

I remeber loving the Indian in the cupboard series when I was a kid and I still enjoy them now was a teenager. It is definately a timeless series and hope people will continue to read them.
