Great book!

My sister and I had this book when we were kids. She filled hers out when she was about 5 (1976) and I did mine when I was 8 (1986). My mom saved them and it was so fun to go through when she brought them out! The book is great. It allows kids to draw a picture, write a story and answer questions about themselves. Even if they aren't reading yet it's something parents and kids can work on together. Somethings are a little harder to figure out (# of steps to closest store) but it really is fun. It does need a little updating (a newer edition maybe)... when it asks what country you live in it still has East Germany, West Germany and the Soviet Union as options. Now I understand it is hard to keep up with all the small changing countries, but those are pretty major! But that's the only thing. Even that could be a teaching moment for parents and kids. I am buying several as gifts this Christmas.

Theodore Giesel (Dr Seuss) at his best	Customer Rating:
Wonderful book! I've bought three copies over the years for three of my kids/grandkids when they were 5 or 6 years old. It's their book, to write the answers in (in fact the first thing is to have the kid write his name in it!), to read and figure out, etc. Highly recommended both for the parent/grandparent - and, more importantly, for the kid.

My Book About Me This book is great! My young reader loves the interactiveness of being able to count all the steps in the house, find out the color of his eyes and tell all the things about his life at this moment. I'm thinking about adding some scrapbook pages for each year for some of the questions that will change over time. The best part is, I can show him My Book About Me that I completed in the 1970's.

Still A Great Book	Customer Rating:
I bought this book for my daughter who is now 41 years old. My youngest grandson was visiting and he found the book (which I had saved) and just loved it. Everytime he comes he wants to read and look at the book. He is five years old and this Halloween instead of giving him candy, I bought him this book to put in his Halloween bag. It's better than any candy and it certainly lasts longer.

We had this same book for our daughter when she was about [...] old. Her children found it recently and loved reading about their mom. I was delighted to find it still in print, so ordered a copy for each of my grand children so that "their" children may have a similar delightful experience reading about them thirty years from now. It is a fun book to fill in with large Dr. Seuss illustrations and silly suggestions. I'm hoping it will be a favorite Christmas present for them this year.
