This review is from: Richard Scarry's Boxed Set: The Firefighters' Busy Day/Sargeant Murphy's Busy Day/Miss Honey's Busy Day/Humperdink's Busy Day (Busytown Series, Vols 1-4) (Hardcover)

I am a mother of 4 children, all 5 and under, and we have had this set for several years. As with all Richard Scarry books, the illustrations are very detailed and contain little oddities and surprises that keep kids looking for new things to see. All 4 books highlight a specific Busytown character (Sgt. Murphy, Baker Humperdink, Miss Honey, and the Firefighters), and are sure to please girls AND boys. The stories, though for children, are not boring for adults to read again and again (mostly because of the funny illustrations throughout). Be sure to look for all the TV bug reporters!
