Title: Definitely worth owning in hardcover.
Product review: This is one of my son's favorite books who is 4 (along with The little house & Arnold Lobel books). He originally got Frederick for his birthday from a friend of ours which he immediately fell in love with. He asked me to get him more of the frederick books. I looked up Leo Leonni and found out that he had several other books that won the caldecott medal/honor. Since it was more economical and easier to maintain to get 4 stories in 1 book, I bought this book. The weird thing is that my son wants me to read the 3 stories that won the caldecott honor/medal (he loves swimmy, frederick & alexander and the wound up mouse) but he doesn't care much for fish is fish. I guess the caldecott panel really know their stuff!? I got teary reading Alexander and the wound up mouse. It is a fable that is made very sweet & shows what friendship is about and that the grass is not always greener on the other side.
