5.0 out of 5 stars My "First Little Golden Book", July 23, 2001

By

This review is from: Martha's House (First Little Golden Books) (Hardcover)

"Martha's House" is the first, "First Little Golden Book" that I recall from my childhood. I acctually still have it today, with its back cover missing. It sure was and still is a well loved book. "Martha's House" has its own story in my family. While cooking lunch recently with my six aunts, we were all discussing our favorite books. Of coarse, I said, "My favorite book would have to be "Martha's House." My aunts all turned around and looked at me as if I had exposed some deep dark secret of theirs. Then they all just bursted out laughing. While I was standing there in awe, my aunt Ellen explained this,... One day, her husband, Mike was babysitting my cousin Catherine. Catherine was around 2 or 3 at the time, and "Martha's House" was her favorite book too. Anyway, He made the mistake and told Catherine, "No!" Catherine was one of those children that had never heard the word "No" before, so naturally she threw a fit. She ended up hiding under his bed and refused to come out unless he would read "Martha's House." Poor Uncle Mike had to read her that book about 50 times that day. Ever since then, Uncle Mike looks sick if you even mention the book. "Martha's House" written by Edith Kunhardt, is a precious children's book. It has friendly illustations by Carolyn Bracken. If you have ever read it, you know it doesn't tell story, but it does invite you into Martha's house to eye all that she wants to show. I love this book even as a teenager today. I will always love it and hope to pass it to my children one day. I suggest that you buy it for any girl of any age, and they will love it and treasure it forever, because it allows us all to remember home.

5.0 out of 5 stars My absolute favorite!!!!!, February 25, 2010

By 

Alicia in Md "Alicia" (Maryland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Martha's House (First Little Golden Books) (Hardcover)

I absolutely loved this book when I was little. My parents read it to me soooo many times that I had learned to memorize it when I was only 4 years old. I always wished to have an attic just like the one in Martha's house, so I too could play dress up just like her! I now have my own little girl and can't wait to get this book down from my parents' attic to share with my daughter. I just know she will love it too.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Truly Satisfying Picture Book for Small Children, January 21, 2009

This review is from: Martha's House (First Little Golden Books) (Hardcover)

As a small child, this was one of my favorite books. Somehow, I never quite outgrew it! As a mom now I was hoping to find a copy of this book for my children to "love" since mine is a little love-worn after all the years it's lived. This book is bright and engaging, and the illustrations show fun, familiar details of household life that give children plenty of material for imaginative play and vocabulary expansion (Toddlers will repeatedly ask "what's this?").
