Little Miss and the Legomeister
rated it: 
This book was my husband's when he was a child. It's seen a lotta love. It's missing the cover and some outside pages. Legomeister spent hours pouring over all the vehicle pictures, and we loved to read the nursery rhymes and stories.
Little Miss really liked "I am a Bunny" by Ole Risom. It shows the bunny in four different seasons. And "The Bunny Book" by Patricia Scarry, where everyone asks Baby Bunny what he wants to be when he grows up. (A daddy.) These longer More...

I loved this as a child and my 15 month old daughter also delights when "dada" reads from this book during her goodnight routine.

This was my favorite book when I was younger I read it so many times.
Great kids book.
Funny. This book would be best for ages 4 and up. Maybe a little younger.
This book is funny. I remember everything that happened. When I read this book it I thought it was the funniest thing ever but that was awhile ago. I love this random book because it is easy to read, and quite funny. I think everyone should read this books. So read it now!

This book has so much sentimental value to me as it was one of the staples of my daughter's reading diet for years. We really loved Lowly Worm. I adored how the stories were morally engaging without being didactic or pendantic or boring. I think I even may have kept it, although it was rather falling apart. Oh the memories!

Meet Huckle Cat, Loly Worm and other fun characters in this wonderful book. Pages and pages of great artwork that will entertain a child with just trying to find all the items on the pages. It's a great book to pick up and fill time with your kids, my kids wore out 3 copies just from the constant reading of the book.

My first grade teacher gave everyone in her class a copy of this. I read it, and re-read it, and re-read it. It didn't exactly teach me to read, but it certainly helped. And Yes, I still have it, falling apart though it is, poor thing.
Want a good book for a child beginning to read? Look no further.

I loved this book as a child! I have such fond memories of my mom reading this to me at our cabin and then tucking me into the pull out couch mattress next to the smoldering coals of the dying fire. However, many parts would not be considered "politically correct" today:)

My siblings and I grew up with this book, and so for Christmas one year, my mom sent all of us our very own copy! I loved this book when I was little, and my kids love it now too! It's a classic! Great pictures, of course and cute cute stories!

Found my copy of this at home that I received for Christmas decades ago and brought it back for my kids to enjoy. They are amazed at the sheer volume of stories that could be read in the book! Cute lessons and illustrations.

One of my husband's childhood favorites. We ordered it for my daughter for Christmas and she loves it. It's a great collection of stories, intermixed with fun educational sections (to teach kids colors, animals, etc.).

One of my all time favorite storybooks! I adored every page, every illustration and every story. I always enjoyed having to find the worm on every page! Such a wonderful storyteller.

Richard Scarry books are much too cool to be given to a first born, so I had to sneak a look at my younger brother's collection ... like when I was about 13. Better late than never.

I was saddened to find that newer versions of this book have removed some stories in what appears to be an exercise in political correctness censorship.

Lots of pictures. Great for my kids to look through on their own, and it was good when they were first learning to read.

I could always find bed time stories in this big volume. I read it so much that the cover fell off!

The big heavy book. It's got frogs taking a bath in a car and they're wearing white swimmers.
