Summary: A Gem of a Book!
Review: I read this book when I was about 8 years old. I borrowed it from my old grade school library. I was so captured by the fun, simple, but adventursome stories, that I had to go out and buy the book as an adult. Reading it brought back a flood of happy memories from my childhood. The stories of Homer Price and his small town neighbors, friends and family are a happy, refreshing look at what America is and should be all about. I'm looking forward to the day that I can read it to kids of my own!

Summary: Homer Price one of the best!
Review: I really liked the book Homer Price and I think you would too. Homer Price is a funny book in which there are four stories about a boy named Homer Price. One is about his pet skunk, another tells about too many donughts and another is about a mystery man with a long beard and yet another about lots of houses that look the same. The pictures are great too. So if you'd like a good laugh and great illustrations, Homer Price is the book for you.

Summary: Homer Price: A Really Good Book
Review: I really liked this book. There's nothing really bad about this book. I think this would be a great book for ages nine and up and who likes stories that have problems in it. Every chapter has at least one problem in it. In chapter one Homer finds a skunk and names her Aroma. In chapter two, Super Duper, a comic character, is coming to perform in Centerburg. After Super Duper performs, Homer and his friend ride home on a horse-pulled wagon. Super Duper's car is right behind them but breaks down. Is Super Duper strong enough to push his car?

Summary: Timeless, Charming, Entertaining
Review: I remember this book from my childhood (long ago) and I was pleased to find it again while browsing the Childrens' Library. What I recall most vividly are the illustrations (also by author McCloskey) of the odd but likable characters from Homer's town. Seeing them again after all these years brought back a flood of memories of the time when I was first beginning to discover books. In fact, I don't recall really reading the book then, just looking at the pictures. Reading it today, I find that "Homer Price" retains the charm and spirit of a simpler era, sort of a children's version of Lake Wobegon. Nice to see an old favorite still in print.

Summary: Homer Price
Review: I thought it was a real good book because it was funny, and it was strange and weird. I also like it had very weird situations like when they built a hundred houses in a week.

Summary: a boy who solves problems
Review: I thought the book was okay ,the thing I liked was the first two chapters. Another thing I liked was the characters. Therefore it was okay. It reminds me of the Doug TV show. Because the towns people are Doug's friends like they were with Homer. Homer knew how to handle problems.

Summary: Homer Is Worth The Price
Review: I would recommend Homer Price to all kids. I really liked this book because it was kind of funny. To all of the teachers, this is a good book, too. This is a collection of stories about a boy and all of his adventures. He likes to tinker with things. The story about the skunks was a real "stinker" (Just kidding! It was especially funny.)

Summary: a great book if you're from Ohio
Review: I'd recommend this book for ayone with a hankering to drift into the days of small town America when snoring and jumping off watertowers were de riquer. Each chapter is complete unto itself, so you who are easily distracted can have your cornpone and eat it too. If you are age 12 or younger, the book needs no recommendation by me. You will have probably discovered it for yourself

Summary: A Classic!
Review: I'm now 65. I love this book. I remember when I was in second grade, and read it for the first time. Donut machine... Pets... Sure, it's "old fashioned." But it has humor, and a delightful, light spin. I love to give this to an 8-year old, or a kid who is just learning to read! The stories are full of a kid's view of a simple world. (The way the world should be to a kid.) Read it yourself. Fun, from start to finish. The illustrations are wonderful. I have to go and get another donut!
