5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Storybook!, January 7, 2006

A Kid's Review

I am 10 yrs old and I love this story book. You'll wanna read it all day! It has 8 wonderful stories. ''Meet The Ponies'' isn't so bad, it isn't my favorite though. ''Pinkie Pie's Spooky Dream'' is very cool. Rainbow Dash, Sparklesworks, and Pinkie Pie sleep outside and Pinkie Pie has a scary dream. ''A Pony's Tale'' is so fun to read. Cotton Candy realizes that adding the other pony's ideas in the play makes it even better. ''Fun At The Fair'' is one of my very favorites, it starts when the ponies rush to the fair and Minty want a teddy bear, and keeps trying to get it and doesn't give up. ''Pony Party''is very cute. Everybody helps Pinkie Pie feel better and they make her a new costume of of some of theres. ''Wishes Do Come True!'' is fun to read. Maybe you are just supposed to make up your own story about what happens next after Skywishes wakes up. Anyway Star Catcher makes everybody's dreams come true and Skywishes discover where the pegasus's secret hideout is. ''Fashion Fun'' is really cute. Minty picks a rain outfit and keep tripping in it, so Sew-And-So gives her ''gorgeous galoshes'' so she wan't slip, tumble, and trip! The last story, ''Butterfly Hunt'', is auctally very interesting! It is also very cute. Two ponies catch butterflies and find a whole bunch of them, and then they take them for a flight over Ponyville!

4.0 out of 5 stars My daughter LOVES this book!!, January 26, 2006

By	Lakisha White "One Pleased Mom" (Katterbach, Germany) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this book for my 4 year old daughter as a christmas present. She has asked me to read this book every night since then. She loves the colors and she adores every pony, in the opening of the book the first story is "Meet the Ponies", she has never asked me what the names of her little ponies were before this book but now she almost has most of her ponies names memorized! And she has alot of them! She also told me that she thinks that the ponies are very good friend to each other. She says that they are never mean and they always ask to help their friends. I feel that this is a very good lesson for my daughter to learn. Even though some of the stories are a little pointless you do learn one key thing and that is that friends are very special and you should try always to be a good one.

5.0 out of 5 stars My girls loved it, July 29, 2006

By	J. Braun (Pennsylvania USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My girls, 3 and 5 really like the Little Pony toys and books overall. They pick out the one story they want to hear by looking at the index in the front. They enjoy the pictures and trying to identify the pony with their name.

The 5 year old is beginning to read and the pictures that are substituted for the words in the story help her to "read" the story. My only qualm is that the pictures should have the word that they represent underneath them. This would help to reinforce her reading skills.

The stories are cute and have a simple moral message.
