Oh, What a Busy Day

I remember having this book when I was 6, after moving 3 times it got lost. I don’t know if my parents gave away or misplaced but I deeply adore this book. One of the 1st book I managed to read on my own without help. The book is in excellent condition when it arrived so thank you so much!

I'm so sad that this isn't carried...this was my absolute favorite book as a child! It follows the day of little children, using all kinds of old-fashioned rhymes and cute sayings. There are tons of fantastic illustrations- every other page is full of color! The children do all sorts of things like eat a big breakfast, play outside in the park, play indoors when it's raining, play dress-up, and more. Also, rhymes include "Fuzzy Wuzzy", "Starlight, Starbright...", etc, etc, etc. A true classic! My father found this book the other day and I am now reading it with my 2 year old. Although the book is somewhat long for his age, he absolutely loves it and will sit still through the majority of the book. He likes to point out all the details (and there are lots of them). Fantastic children's book!

I first bought this book for my oldest daughter who is now 25 and expecting her first child. We wanted to find the book again for her baby. I was able to order a used book in Oct. Last week, 1/29 my daughter found out that it is in print again! She bought one for her baby and a copy for me and her sister. She bought all the bookstore had! It went into print in 2002 by Backpack publ.

This children's book is one of the best, a true classic. My 25 year old daughter had me search high and low for this book that is now out of print (or was). The reason she wanted the book is because when she was young, we spent many hours reading and viewing the wonderful words and pictures that make this book special. We had actually read the hard cover book so often that it fell apart and disappeared from our home. If you are fortunate enough to have a copy of this masterpiece, please hold on to it. It's a rare and beautiful glimpse into the hearts and minds of children.

Some of my happiest memories include the numerous times I read this to my two girls who are now in college. The words flow beautifully and have a magical sound. Lots and lots of interesting things for the little reader to name and remember. I only wish I could buy copies for the new little babies in my life!! HELP!

I read this book time and time again as a child and adored it with all my heart! Unfortunately, it was lost some time ago. My being a mother now, I want to share and show my child the very same enjoyment that I gained from this WONDERFUL BOOK! To the publisher, PLEASE REPRINT THIS BOOK! YOU WOULD HAVE MY, AND I'M SURE MANY OTHER PARENTS', ETERNAL GRATITUDE! Thanks
