5.0 out of 5 stars What an truly beautiful children's book., September 4, 2007

This review is from: Tibor Gergely's Great Big Book of Bedtime Stories (Hardcover)

This book takes me back to when I was little and all the Golden Book stories with their beautiful illustrations that I was read to and then read for myself. I put a photo of the book and also the table of contents to explain better. The illustrations are superb and very colorful and cute.

I agree with the previous reviewer, that this is one book to be handed down through the family. Or, just hang on to it to enjoy for yourself. I love children's books and this is one of the ones that I will hang on to.

5.0 out of 5 stars Priceless book - Pass from generation to generation, December 15, 2004

This review is from: Tibor Gergely's Great Big Book of Bedtime Stories (Hardcover)

My parents saved this book from when I was a child as it was my favorite (printed 1967). Now I read the same book to my 2 year old and it's his favorite too!! While I agree it's somewhat dated ("daddies go to work" concepts vs. "parents") it really is a wonderful book and I read my own versions to my son - They just don't make books like this anymore.

5.0 out of 5 stars At the risk of sounding redundant..., October 14, 2004

... This is truly the best children's book ever. The stories may seem dated in so far as the era the stories take place in ("Someday we may go to the moon") but that only adds to the book's appeal. Simply put, a story about Daddies, mail carriers and fire fighters, are more engaging and more enjoyable than ANY adventure Elmo or the teletubies will ever have. If you can find this book, get it!
