Summary: Fantastic, as usual!
Review: Bill Peet is one of our family's favorite childrens' authors, and this is one of his best books. It has a flowing, rythmic rhyme and a positive message typical of his stories. In this case, the theme is about solving problems without violence, featuring a dove and her adopted son, a griffin. The illustrations are great. With the rhyming style and the expressive pictures, my kids used to memorize many of Pete's books long before they could actually read. I also highly recommend a couple of our other favorites, "The Ant and the Elephant" and "How Droofus the Dragon Lost His Head" (even though those don't rhyme so much).

Summary: Childhood Favorite
Review: My dad read this book to me as a child hundreds of times. The pictures and the lyric quality of the words were hypnotizing and set my little imagination going. The different messages are also very important for children to hear.
