Summary: Our 2-year Old Always Asks to Play With This Book/Toy
Review: I got this for my daughter's 2nd birthday and she adores it. She always asks for "Mady" (Maisy), so I tie the red ribbons and set up the whole house for her. The only annoying thing about it is the clean-up of all the tiny little cardboard accessory pieces. I think some of them are in our vacuum now.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome!
Review: I purchased this book and the Maisy Farm book to take on vacation with us. They traveled well and when we opened the book we loved the playhouse. My 3 year old laughed with joy when she say Maisy and all the wonderful things in her house. Best yet - when we left vacation we folded the book and packed it. This is one of her favorite toys now.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful playhouse!!!
Review: I was actually pleasantly deceived by this "book" I purchased this via Amazon over the star reviews and the fact that my daughter LOVES Maisy and her books. I didn't even realize that this is a pop up house of Maisy's bathroom, kitchen and bedroom. There are pop out food and plates to put it the cupboard, fridge that all really open. A stand up Maisy doll with multiple outfits to change her in. Even a pop out bed with a cover for her! This is a wonderful toy for a preschooler and enhances their imagination. The only problem that I truly see in this "book" is no where to store all the little pieces it comes with. I just attached a ziplock to the book to prevent the tiny pieces from getting lost. This was my 2.5yr old daughter's favorite Christmas present - I don't think she was quite old enough to keep it very neat but she has played for hours and hours! I purchased another one for when she is a little older. Very reasoable price and a sure pleaser!!

Summary: independent play
Review: My daughter received this book when she was just a little over two years old. She was already a Maisy fan. What shocked me was that she disappeared into the bedroom one day, and when I went to go check on her, she was quietly playing all by herself with this. I didn't figure it would last long. Finally, almost an hour later, I had to go in and get her to go to the grocery store. She is almost three now and STILL loves to play independently with this book/toy - it's the only toy which occupies her independently for hours on end. I bought her the farm version too, which she also likes. A definite winner!

Summary: A toy not a book
Review: This is a "book" that folds out to a house - complete with kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. It has accessories, including Maisy, her toy panda, sailboat, rubber ducky, clothes, toothbrush, hairbrush, food, drinks, etc, etc. The cupboards and fridge open to reveal food, dishes and more. The bathroom has incredible attention to detail, including toilet paper that actually rolls out a little. I have a 3 year old daughter and she will play with this for hours. The toys are made of paper which is pretty durable, but are showing some wear. It doesn't bother her. This is one of her favorite toys and she plays with it every day. At first I was worried about the set getting ruined by little hands, but it is holding out very well. I highly recommend this toy for Maisy fans. There is a Maisy Farmhouse which is a great companion to this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My 2 yr old LOVES this book
Review: We just received this book as a birthday present last night and I can't tell you how much my daughter loves it. She played endless for HOURS with it. We finally had to go to bed and she cried for 30 min! She woke up this morning asking for it. If your child loves Maisy, this is perfect. You get to be in Maisy's world. I love that it's not electronic and high tech-it's perfect for little imaginations to explore and invent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: They thought of everything!
Review: What a wonderful value this is -- an adorable and fun playhouse setup, creatively designed and waiting for a lucky child to discover its many hidden surprises. The book comes tied with two red ribbons. You can "read" the book and let each of the three rooms (kitchen, bathroom, bedroom) appear individually, or you can unfold the house and tie the ribbons with the book covers back-to-back so that the three-room house is completely accessible as a sort of diorama. Your preschooler boy or girl will have hours of low-tech fun playing with Maisy as she dresses, bathes or showers, cooks and plays. Three sheets of pop-out accessories include clothes, dishes, food, etc. which can be placed in the closets and cupboards and other nooks and crannies.

A sliding window depicts a day or nighttime sky over Maisy's bed. A pie is in the oven. Clothes hang in the closet. A toilet with a lid that raises. There are loads of fun little surprises here. My advice: get this even for a little child who may tear the cardboard pieces. You can always tape them together or buy another playhouse, but you can't always find a cute, fun setup for little ones that requires imagination more than batteries, allowing children to act out stories in a familiar home-y environment.

Highest recommendation.
