Rating:  Summary: All about self-esteem and confidence Review: I read this book more than thirty years ago, and I still remember it, because I identified with Andrew so much. Andrew has something important to say, something he knows is true and valid and urgent. But for the life of him, he can't get any grown-ups to pay attention to him. They are all too busy, too numb and on remote-control, and could care less what a kid has to sayAndrew finally manages to get himself heard after a great deal of effort, and the whole town finally realizes that he has been right all along. It's a great book, but it shouldn't be $101.56, for Pete's sake!
Rating:  Summary: Worst book ever Review: This book was horrible! I would never read this to my children. I was forced to read this for a religious class. Its not worth a penny.
Rating:  Summary: My favorite book as a child Review: This was my favorite book when I was little. I read it over and over again. Obviouslly having the same name made it mine but I think it has to do with the theme of being ignored. I am sure my family would say it is because I talked all the time. I like that Andrew was right all along and that everyone should have listened to him. I think kids today would indentify with this in light of how fast-past and distracted we are as adults. But buy the cheaper version. Who is their right mind would pay over $100 for a kid's book?
