Summary: This is a GREAT book!
Review: As a kid, I read this book several times and I remember being just totally caught up in it - would the girl find Elizabeth?? I remember even dreaming about it. Now I have a daughter named Elizabeth and a few years ago I started looking for this book for her. Just for kicks, I tried the Amazon website and here it is, new, not used! My Elizabeth turns 6 in a few days and I am so excited that I will be able to read this to her and her little sister at bedtime. Magic Elizabeth is a magical book.

Summary: It's Available Again--I'm SO Excited!
Review: As others have said, I read this book when I was a little girl, and it has always been my all-time favorite! Unfortunately, I lost my copy sometime after I entered high school. I loved it then, and I love it now! I was so very desperate to share this wonderful story with my daughter when she reached the age I was when I first read it, that I searched for months and months, through every source I could, trying to purchase a "used" copy because it was "out-of-print", and could not be found anywhere!! Eventurally, we had to settle for checking it out of the library, over and over and over....Today, though, while searching for something else, I typed in the search box on Amazon.com, "Magic Elizabeth", just to see what would happen....well, when it came up AVAILABLE on the search, I literally felt a rush! I called my daughter into the room, and together we read all the reviews, and she just kept saying over and over to me, "GET IT!" So I did. I'm 42 years old, but I'm as excited for my NEW copy to arrive as I was when I would re-read my original again and again. The story is timeless, and wonderful for all girls....young and old!

Summary: A timeless story
Review: I first read this book as a child and never forgot the story. Never before or since have I been so pulled into a story. I felt as if I was Sally. The ending never fails to tickle me, no matter how often I read it. I make it a point to read it to my class every year. They are as entralled by the book as I always am.

Review: I read this book for the first time when I was 10 years old and reread it many, many times that year. It was my very favorite book. Unfortunately, I lost my original copy but the story has stayed with me for over 30 years. It is a wonderfully evocative story and a treasure for those who love history and mystery. I plan to find another copy soon and reread it. I have two daughters aged three and one, and I look forward to when they're old enough to read and enjoy the truly magical journey that this amazing book takes you on.

Review: I read this book so many years ago. It is a beautiful, magical story. It seemed as if I went through the mirror with Sally into another time. A person can go anywhere in the world while reading a book. I look forward to sharing this book with my 11 year old niece.

Summary: I found it again! and now my daughter can enjoy it!
Review: I read this book when I was in 2nd or 3rd grade and have been searching for it ever since...kind of like looking for the magical doll herself, Elizabeth. Now, almost 30 years later, I am reading it with my 8-year-old daughter. She loves the story as much as I did...and her name is Emily just like Sally's friend. What an adventure to search through an old attic of trunks and dusty treasures of a century ago. Norma Kassirer brings your imagination right into each scene with her vivid descriptions. Read this book and enjoy it for generations!

Summary: I CAN'T BELIEVE I FOUND IT!
Review: Like others on this review list, I've been searching for this book forever...in fact, I've been searching my memory for title, too! When I finally remembered it, I couldn't believe I'd find it still in print. I can't wait to read this to my 7 year old, as well as "The Best Loved Doll", another of my childhood favorites!
