OK, so, McCloskey is a great author for kids, and has wonderful illustrations, but Homer Price is a wonderful book for boys about a boy who is quite adventurous. From busting robbers to losing diamond rings in a a batch of donuts, this book is entertaining either for a young reader to read by himself, or for a parent to read at bedtime. Love this book! I was fortunate enough to land a hardcover edition, just for the novelty of it. Enjoy! Read to your children, amuse yourself at the same time.
I am a 53 years old japanese ophthalmologist. " Homer Price " was one of my favorite stories when I was a schoolboy. I've repeatedly read it with great pleasure in japanese translation. But unfortunately I've lost the book as time goes by and forgotten the detail of the story. So I can not explain how much I felt gratitude when I found it at the eBay shop. Now I am reading this book again and it reminds me of my " good old days. "
McCloskey a a giant in children's literature, and Homer Price is one of his best.
