Title: Great story, but poor formatting in this edition
Review: We purchased this book for a stocking stuffer last Christmas. I thought it would be fun since it is a "mini" book and fit perfectly into our daughter's stocking. I do like this story and remember reading it when I was young, and our little one already loves it as well. However, this "Mini" edition is formatted very poorly. The words on the page do not always match up with the illustrations, which disrupts the flow of the story when you are trying to read it aloud! We tend to sort of "edit" the text as we are reading so that it will make sense to our daughter as she looks at the pictures. The book itself is sturdy, and the pages are thick & good quality. But, overall, I am disappointed with this product. I would not recommend it, nor would I purchase it again. It would have been better to just spend a little extra and get the full-size book so that the text on the pages was correct.
