Ohhhhh so wonderful!, July 21, 2010
This review is from: The Memory Cupboard: A Thanksgiving Story (Hardcover)
"Sometimes, no matter how careful we are, things we're fond of get broken. But things are just things. People are more important." What a fabulous message wrapped up in a book that is rich with family values, togetherness, tradition and love. This book is simply wonderful in every way. The illustrations are beautifully done, with expressive faces and nostalgic settings. This book teaches the importance of placing value in people, not things.

Sweet and Endearing, January 16, 2007
This review is from: The Memory Cupboard: A Thanksgiving Story (Hardcover)
Perfect for anyone struggling with that difficult, clumsy stage between childhood and adolescence. Beautifully illustrated and delicately didactic, a gentle grandmother assures her granddaughter that we all make mistakes. If you like Elizabeth Koda-Callan's "Magic Charm Books," you will love "The Memory Cupboard." A warm tale any time of the year, but especially poignant during the holiday season, I would recommend for read aloud to elementary age children.
