This pre-school guide to independent thinking has been a family favorite for decades. Lessons for the young, and for those unwilling to grow up. Our original copy was bought 'pre-tattered' at a garage sale in the 70's. I've just purchased 3 new ones as stocking stuffers for my adult children.

This is a great book about following your own dreams, dancing to your own tune, believing in what drives you, all done in a really engaging book. The marker drawings are great--I love how you can see the marker lines. It's humorous and wonderful and wild. Share it with your kids!

I'm an elementary school art teacher and I use this book every year! I love Pinkwater- he's so fabulously wacky and this story doesn't disappoint. I have my kiddos draw pictures of the house of their dreams, too. We have princess houses and underwater houses and candy/ice cream houses- it's great fun!

My 4 yo son enjoys this book and I enjoy its message. Essentially, that message is "Be yourself. Don't conform just because other people want you to." The story is fun and the illustrations are whimsical. I look forward to purchasing more books by Pinkwater.

A wonderful story about a man who decides to not fit in, and in so doing changes his "neat street" to a creative and colorful street. I'd recommend this story to absolutely any 4-7 year old.
The only problem is that this edition is printed on paper that is way too thin, so that you can see the pictures from the subsequent page through the paper! Shame.
