My four year old and two year old both love this book. The text is simple and rhyming, allowing both of them to "read" it as well. The story follows a girl shopping with her father, occasionally picking up a treat. Her father says "Not Today" and she "puts it away". Imagine my delight at the toy store when my son threw a package on the counter. "Not today," I told him. "So I put it away," he responded and put it on the shelf! My kind of literature that influences life!

I shop with my 3-year-old daughter. She loves this book, and I also like it a great deal. The pictures are detailed enough to give us tangents for conversation -- we talk about what she'd like to buy next time we go shopping. I've even used the cashier page to start talking with her about money, and why I go to work (so we can pay for things we want to buy). And as the previous reviewer noted, it provides an awfully good role model, when the little girl puts treats back on the shelf!
