"My 5 year old LOVED it!" according to KNCS. I purchased this book book for my (then) 5 year old son and he loves it!

My daughters love the stories and it sparks their imagination. In addition, the CD's are complete and are over 1 1/2 hours. This is an excellent addition to any child's library and the CD's extend the value. They are great for rest times, or nap/bed times.

Love Mother West Wind Stories I had this book as a child and was thrilled to find it again. They don't write 'em like they used to. The stories and pictures are wonderful and are great for bedtime stories.
