I have ordered this book for each of my grandchildren as they turn 6.  I have one to go.  I received a copy from my grandmother.  My oldest daughter took a passage from this book and placed it on the wall in the kids' bathroom.  So the parents do read it too.  This is a book that should be read to the children until they are old enough for themselves.  As this book was 1st released in the 20s and is still being published says everything.
