Stan the Hot Dog Man

This is the best children's book I have ever read. The book is easy to read and filled with love and rescues. Stan, the main character, has quit his job at the bakery to become a hotdog man. Stan meets a family who can't afford 4 hotdogs and shows love and commpassion. He also gets stuck in a snowstorm and gets rescued by the patrol. I think this is a great book for young readers. I reccommend this book to all ages.

This is a sweet story about an older man and his wife. After retiring, he decides to keep on working, as a hotdog man. This may sound a bit odd for a child's story, but it is actually is great! It becomes quite adventurous in one part, when a snow storm comes, and Stan is able to help out some people who are stranded and snowed in. This book has small glimpses into traits that I would love my children to learn...Generosity, thoughtfullness, ingenuity, courage, friendliness, and a strong work ethic, among others. Highly recommended.

This is a level 2 easy reader about a man who retires and becomes a hot dog man. A very cute story about a man and his wife. My 7 year old enjoyed reading this book.

This is my 7 year old son's favorite book at the moment, which surprises me, because it's about a man who retires and fulfills his dream to become a hot dog man!Not something every 7 year old can relate to, but it's a well told, interesting little story.We see Stan's hopes that his new business will succeed. We watch as he shows compassion for a poor family, and when a snowstorm threatens school children, we see just how wonderful Stan really is.He's a very likeable character, and spending the day with Stan is like spending the day with Grandpa.Lovely story and easy for beginning readers.

A refreshing change from Disneyesque "children's" stories that seem necessarily to involve death, destruction, orphaned babies, violence, or assorted misfortune. This book offers page-after-page of a good-hearted story about a good-hearted man. Exactly the book you will want to read with your 3-year-old fresh out of the tub.
