YIKES! SCARRY!

2007-07-17
Not a good book for kids. The poor little guy is lost, alone, and frightened as he searches everywhere for his mother. Should be a horror story, not a bedtime story. What kid wants to go to bed with thoughts of being separated from his loved ones and the possibility of never seeing his mother again? I wouldn't recommend buying this book.

a childhood favorite passed down

I am just thrilled to see that this classic is still going strong. I remember this from the early 70s as I was a young girl and my father read this to me daily. And now, I had the priviledge of introducing the book to my daughter about a year ago. It became an instant favorite since it involves all the favorite characters of a toddler's life: conversations with a dog, cow, chicken, cat etc. Parents that enjoy getting creative when reading to their children will love this book!

Still has the same magic

I just finished reading "Are you my Mother?" with my daughter, having not heard it since I was a child. This book still posesses the same magic it did for me all those years ago.
Highly recommended.

P.D. Eastman is a name you can trust!

I love to send books by PD Eastman to my 3 1/2 year old granddaughter because I can always count on the same response: She LOVES his books! Carries the new one around and tries to entice any handy adult to read it to her. Why are they such a treasure? I haven't a clue; they just possess some sort of magic that a 3 1/2 year old thinks is the right stuff. That's good enough for me. I am going to be very sad when we run out of Mr. Eastman's books.

Cute book!

This is such a cute story! I remember loving it as a child and now I get to read it to my 4 year old daughter and she loves it as well!

An Absolute Favorite!!

This was one of my favorite Dr. Seuss books when I was little. I am 24 now and I still have my book (and yes its falling apart). I am keeping it to read to my kids someday. Cute story about a baby bird who goes looking for his mother who went out to get some food. He meets all sorts of things along the way and asks them all "Are you my mother?". I saw another review about this book saying that it was "Scarry" and I can't help but roll my eyes. I never once thought the book was scarry when I was little nor did my brother. I am sure your kids will love it as much as so many other generations have. Hey it's Dr. Seuss, you just can't go wrong! :)

I love this book! I think I read it a few times alerady since I got it for my birthday. I could't wait till the little bird found his mother. It reminds me of anther book titled Why Some Cats are Rascals, Book 1 in which the cats got lost when they were looking for freedom...

My mom got me this book when i was only a few months old. It is a great book. Since i am older i don't read it as much but i didn't forget about it yet! It has a baby bird who falls out of its nest and goes out looking for its mother and it asks so many animals and it finally finds her.The illustrations are great. I would recommend it to any beginner.

A lovely book!

This book could not be sweeter! My 5 yo adores this book. It shows the bond and love a Mother and child have from day one.
