Summary: Another Steig charmer
Review: William Steig creates such charming endearing characters that they almost distract you from the sweet morals of his heartfelt stories. I think one of the all time greatest two pages of childrens picture books is here when the main character leans back into flowers and says to herself "I love everything". That is a message and sentiment that should be remembered everyday.
Steig has so many rich values in his books that he is being taught in my college as a surpreme storyteller with wonderful messages for kids. He writes in a simple clean way while incorporating rich lessons that children may learn from subconsiously. He is a wonderful writer. This is a wonderful story, as are all his works.
