Fuels the Imagination
This is the best children's book I have ever read! The story line is great--very heatwarming, but the best part of the book is the illustrations. Transparent sheets are inserted every other page so that when you turn them one way, you see the inside of a building, and when you turn them back, you see only the outside of the same building. I remember spending many happy hours flipping back and forth, imagining the lives of the many characters drawn on each page. This is an excellent book to let your imagination run away with. It is so good, I remeber it vividly even though I am all grown up now!

Totally captivating
I was enamored with this book as a child and now I am getting a copy for my soon to be born nephew. It's the most memorable book I had as a child. The illustrations transport the viewer into another world of possibilities with all their detail. It was fun to spend hours looking into the details of the illustrations for more and more creatures and things. It's also a sweet story with a lesson geared toward simplicity and modesty in our desires.

Fabulous book for children's imaginations
Like the previous reviewer, I too grew up with this book and cherished it. It fueled my imagination endlessly. The binding of my copy is completely worn and I thought I would try to find a better copy to share with my own kids. I'd love to see this book reprinted. It is truly timeless!
