and now I'm buying it for their children. I still have the story memorized, from reading it aloud - oh, 1,000 times, easily.
"They heard a tiny peep -peep - peep, coming from the room. What could it be? (turn the page to hushed anticipation) It was their BABY!" The nice thick pages are easy to turn for little fingers.

I loved this book as a child, and I wanted to share it with my children too. I have a feeling the fur at the back of the book is going to be worn completely off from being loved to death by the time my kids grow out of this book. :)

5.0 out of 5 stars 37 years later, and I'm reading it to my children, August 3, 2010

This review is from: Is This the House of Mistress Mouse? (Board book)

I loved this book as a child...37 years ago (at 3yr old) I remember my father and mother reading it to me at bed time. Well I just read that same 37+ yr old book to my 3 yr old son. He asked me to read it again ... twice!
Even though the book is old, it is in really good condition! They really made this one well. The fur is a little haggard, but you would be too after being read 100 times over 37 years.

I want to preserve my copy, most likely a first edition, so I'm going to purchase a second copy.

I still love the chicken scratching directions!
