My son just loved this one. He wants me to read it every night. Lots of laughs and fabulous illustrations. It's a must have for all.

I loved reading this book to my first grade class. It brings such an imaginative feel to a town, and the story just gets better and better as you read. Never in a child's wildest dreams have they thought of a town where instead of rain or snow there are meatballs and eggs!!! This book is funny and really grasps any child's attention!!!

I don't understand...

the hullaballoo over this book. My son read it in school and we went to see the movie together, which I loved. After that, I bought the book and read it for the first time since I was very little. I did not understand why it was so loved...
The illustrations are dull, colorless and unexciting. The entire book is just a person telling a story. There is no dialogue. There is no action that actually seems like action. Most of all, the book fails to follow the number one rule of writing: "show, don't tell!"
All in all, a very dull book. I wish I hadn't purchased it.

This was one of my children's favorite books so I had to get a new one for my grandchildren so they can know this wonderful story.
