5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Classic, December 24, 2009
This is a charming story about an Indian boy who tricks the lions into giving him back his fabulous new clothes. The illustrations look more African American than Indian in these earlier copies. Many people have a problem with this book, as they see it as being racist. To me, the main character being described as "black" is about as offensive as Snow White being called white . . . take it as a childhood character description, and move on with the story. The text is superbly written and easily flows off the tongue when read.

1.0 out of 5 stars no illustrations downloaded; ...SO I bought another illustrated version, March 30, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: "Little Black Sambo" (Kindle Edition)
I expected this to have at least one illustration... it did not.

So, I ordered the one with ILLUSTRATED in the larger discription.

... this infers that it does have some illustrations.

I wanted the older version to bring back memories of the story I loved in the '40s.

The book went out of print; I'm delighted to have the it back.
