Sweet little stories, cute drawings, but having to repeatedly read the protagonist's three names and that of 'little-friend-Susan' over and over again in the course of reading this aloud was a bit annoying and/or tedious. This aside, an enjoyable, innocent, and charming collection of stories.

Frequently charming and really rather beautifully done, this 90th anniversary edition of the Milly-Molly-Mandy stories is a lovely thing. It's been a long time since I read Milly-Molly-Mandy and if you're the same, here's a brief refresher. Written in the 1920s, MMM is a little girl who lives with her sprawling family in a pleasant little village, and she gets into several very small and rather adorable adventures.

Milly Molly Mandy book was funny and good. I liked when MMM and Billy Blont said they will try to lift the world. I will give MMM four stars. It will be fun to be Milly because she gets to live with her grandma and grandpa and auntie and uncle and her mama and dad.
Loved these books as a kid!
Lovely sweet and charming stories ! Im reading them to my 7 year old for bed time stories and we are both in love! Now to the following book!
There's nothing quite like going back and reading a book that you used to love as a kid. Still enjoyed it now.

Milly-Molly-Mandy could do with being less of a goody-goody but that's my only complaint. ...more

Sweet little collection of stories. My 6 and 3 year old loved them more than I did; there isn’t much that happens but they were intrigued by how things were different in her world and I think the simplicity appealed to them.

Wonderful as always.
I was probably eight or nine when I first read this book and I read it or tried to read it a few times. I don't think that I would like it now though.

Upon finding it under my bed and re-reading it thought it was very twee, can see why my sister didn't like my taste in books when we were children!
