Rating:  Summary: Imogene's back! Review: What's a girl to do when she wakes up with antlers on her head?I remember this book from way back when! It had such a magical, whimsical quality that stayed with me for a long time. The story is told simply with wry humor and the illustrations are crips and clean. It's so good to see it back in print for a whole new generation to discover. I've already introduced it to my friend's child who now wants to wear antlers for halloween. If you never read this as a kid, then run out and read it now. You won't regret it.
Rating:  Summary: This Was My Favorite Book As A Child Review: When I was a child, this was my favorite book. Now everytime I read it, I still enjoy it. The ending is a suprise to every child. Every child should read this. A MUST buy for parents.
Rating:  Summary: A highly entertaining book with a useful message Review: When Imogene wakes up one morning with a huge rack of antlers, she immediately accepts her difference. Others show varying degrees of acceptance--the domestic help thinks her antlers can be useful for drying towels and feeding donuts to birds, but her mother tries to disguise the antlers with an enormous hat. I don't know if my girls (ages 4 and 5) "get" the message about accepting differences, but they think the story and illustrations are hilarious, and want to hear it again and again.
