My mom read this to me as a kid. It changed the way I felt about what it means to be different. Great story with a great moral!

This pre-school guide to independent thinking has been a family favorite for decades. Lessons for the young, and for those unwilling to grow up. Our original copy was bought 'pre-tattered' at a garage sale in the 70's. I've just purchased 3 new ones as stocking stuffers for my adult children.

This is a great book about following your own dreams, dancing to your own tune, believing in what drives you, all done in a really engaging book. The marker drawings are great--I love how you can see the marker lines. It's humorous and wonderful and wild. Share it with your kids!

I'm an elementary school art teacher and I use this book every year! I love Pinkwater- he's so fabulously wacky and this story doesn't disappoint. I have my kiddos draw pictures of the house of their dreams, too. We have princess houses and underwater houses and candy/ice cream houses- it's great fun!

My 4 yo son enjoys this book and I enjoy its message. Essentially, that message is "Be yourself. Don't conform just because other people want you to." The story is fun and the illustrations are whimsical. I look forward to purchasing more books by Pinkwater.
