5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite Book as a child, March 9, 2008

This review is from: where does the butterfly go when it rains? (Paperback)

I had this book when I was little and loved it so much. My Mom would have to read it to me over and over again, every day. I have seen the updated version from 1997 with different pictures but I always remembered this cover and the blue pictures. It's funny what you remember from when you're little. I treasure this book and would love to have it again for nostoligic reasons. It tells where other animals go when it rains but then always gets back to the question "where does the butterfly go when it rains?" and it always made me wonder about that. I loved that about the story, that it made me think and wonder about things. I would recommend this book for any young child.

This review is from: Where Does the Butterfly Go When It Rains (Paperback)

This charmingly illustrated book was mine as a child of the 1960s and always stayed with me throughout my life. Happily, my mother held on to it and I still have it in my library. It's a magical and memorable book for all ages.

read this to my kids 30 years ago... the original blue & white one... and it is one story they still recall and can recite. Will purchase the new version for them at Christmas for their kids. Wonderful!
