5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommend, September 17, 2005

K. Rue (Boise, ID USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: P is for Potato: An Idaho Alphabet (Discover America State by State) (Hardcover)
The cover of this book caught my attention and once I glanced inside I was completely captivated. I purchased 4 copies. One for myself and one for each of our three children - to read to our eleven grandchildren. We live in Idaho but none of them do. What a wonderful way for them to learn about our state. Additionally, I placed a copy in my piano studio. It has been reviewed by numerous students and parents. All have been extremely impressed. The format allows one to enjoy the highlights with beautiful water color illustrations or read on for more in deptgh information.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Well Done Book, April 25, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: P is for Potato: An Idaho Alphabet (Discover America State by State) (Hardcover)
As a librarian and former early childhood educator, I was very impressed with this book for several reasons. I first heard about the book while researching my family history on various Idaho Internet sites. The main reason I purchased the book is I had read that my great grandmother was in it. Upon review of the book, I was so excited about the wonderful write up about Emma Yearian, Sheep Queen of Idaho, and that an alphabet letter had been designated just to her. In addition, I was elated that I was able to share this book with my Mother, which would be her grandmother. My Mother, whom just recently turned 88, resides with me and will be purchasing more books to give away as gifts. My co-worker, 90 years of age, and who has been a librarian for years, also loved this book. He often will mention to me, with a big smile on his face, how much he likes the illustration of the big potato on the flatbed train. I especially enjoyed the beautiful water colored illustrations. I felt like I was in beautiful Idaho again. I would highly recommend this book for every school and library in the State of Idaho.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great gift for exchange students!, February 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: P is for Potato: An Idaho Alphabet (Discover America State by State) (Hardcover)
Beautful Book with simple rhyming text on one side of the page, and a more "grown up" detailed hisory on the facing page. Ideal for visitors to your state, such as exchange students. Our student loved hers.
