This review is from: Stories for Five Year Olds (Kingfisher Treasury of Stories) (Paperback)
We are a family of four children and have lived in three continents. We love the international flavor of this book and the variety of themes. It sparks my children's imaginations and they are delighted every time we take up the book. I highly recommend it to all children and hope they will enjoy the flavor of childhood from around the world.
