y three year old and I loved this wonderfully illustrated book, full of rhymes and stories. There are stories with morals, classic tales of magic and lore and stories spiced with fun and laughter. You can even find the odd recipe inside, for fun things to do afterwards! The illustrations are many and varied and helped with my child's understanding of each short tale.

The format works well on my iPad and because there are so many stories, when you've finished reading you can simply go to the beginning and start again!

A thoroughly good buy and lots of reading fun for little people.

5 Stars from me!

A rather poor collection of stories that will bore the pants off you and your child. There must be better than this available for my nearly 4 year old! Many grammatical errors and the phraseology is just wrong far too often

This best stories ever

This book teaches your children about being more behaved and gives lessons plus it is filled with humor and some other silly stories. The book can be shared with both girls and boys and has 100 stories to choose from

Fun to read with kids

Nice short stories. My daughter loved it. She even read many of them on her own. Looking for more such books.

Sharlene just keeps writing them better and better. Another great book for Children by Sharlene. Just like her 50 stories for 3-7 years old, she captures the imaginations and curiosities of children within these stories. My 8 year old daughter just loved them. The stories are short enough though does not limit the essence of a well educated written story. Within this book also well written and easily understandable poems. What I love about Sharlene's book is the definitions she has added at the end. As a child I remember having to lookup a word in a dictionary solely took the fun out of reading. Here kids stay curious and have everything there wanting to read and learn more. Well done!

I love her style of uncomplicated writing in order for older children being able to read the stories themselves. Another great book with stunning illustrations combined with talented writing. Stories yet to be told. We loved it!

What a wonderful story book for any child who really likes animals and fairy tales. The pictures were adorable, colourful, and the stories kept my son interested without being too lengthy. This is a great gift for a young child who likes to read, and one that adults can enjoy reading out loud as well. Overall this book is an entertaining collection of stories for a great price.
