Summary: The Full Belly Bowl
Review: Enhanced by the subltly muted colors of Halpern's illustrations, "The Full belly Bowl" is an excellent lap or storytime book which begs to be read to your favorite youngster or group. Gifted a magical bowl by a "wee small man" he saved from a fox, the old man had it all, until his own forgetfullness filled his cottage with mice. What of the mice? What of his cat Angela? Can the old man live happily ever after? Children will love having this one read to them!

Summary: What a treasure!
Review: My three children and I read this book over the summer. This is truly a story for all ages. My 10-year-old was as enchanted as his little sister and brother. The story has surprising twists and the most gorgeous illustrations imaginable. I plan to purchase a copy for our home library. It's a book you'll go back to again and again. And with us it sparked some interesting conversations: What would you put in YOUR fully belly bowl?
