Horn Book Review

This read-aloud for children getting ready to read is a pitiful retelling of a famous story, altered by the use of rebuses and the inclusion of a number of other animals. The many available editions of the classic version remain better choices. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
