Reviews
Spires' understanding of the fragility and power of the artistic impulse mixes with expert pacing and subtle characterization for maximum delight.-- Kirkus Reviews - Starred Review, Young readers will love the surprise ending. Readers learn that not everything comes out ?just the right way? instantly.-- International Reading Association, Without being heavy-handed, the author has shown how perseverance, determination, vision, and dealing with your emotions can pay off. Illustrations add charm to the story ... This is a good read-aloud.-- Library Media Connection, ... Spires's buddy tale of overcoming obstacles and learning to manage expectations will likely find an appreciative audience, especially in a classroom setting.-- Quill & Quire, A little girl has big plans to make the most magnificent thing, with the help of her canine sidekick.-- Canadian Family, This is a solid choice with a great message that encourages kids not to quit in the face of disappointment but rather to change their perspective and start over.-- School Library Journal, Young readers will love the surprise ending. Readers learn that not everything comes out "just the right way" instantly.-- International Reading Association, The Most Magnificent Thing captures the ups and downs of the creative process perfectly ... with honesty and even a little elegance.-- Globe and Mail, An entertaining book for the very young, this is also a useful reminder that most problems can be worked out if we give it time. Spires's digital artwork does a masterful job of injecting humour.-- The Montreal Gazette, This indefatigable little girl won't let frustration get in the way of creating her magnificent contraption. Determination is key!-- Today's Parent, It's a useful description of the creative process, an affirmation of making rather than buying, and a model for girl engineers.-- Publishers Weekly, The Most Magnificent Thing is a wonderful fable about effort and reward, in a tone perfectly understandable to younger children. A definite addition to public and primary school collections.-- CM Magazine, In the end, it's precisely the kind of book we need for kids these days. Perfection is a myth. Banged up, beat up, good enough can sometimes be the best possible solution to a problem. A lesson for the 21st century children everywhere.-- Elizabeth Bird, SLJ.com

Dvd arrived quickly and well packaged and taken care of. The item was listed as acceptable and met all of my needs but here's a quick description of what I got: Some wear is visible on the plastic sleeve on the outside of the case. The inside leaflet was still there! The disk has about 3 very notable scratches, although none are bigger than about 2 centimeters. Little to no grime anywhere on the product. Great service!
