1: The Best Book Ever!
Gooseberry Park is one of the BEST books I've ever read ! I couldn't put it down it was so interesting.
If you're wondering why, this is what happens: Kona, a chocolate lab, is friends with a squirrel named Stumpy. Stumpy is a collector of almost everything you can think of. One night she has three babies called Top, Bottom, and Melody. On a windy, stormy, blustery night Stumpy's house is destroyed and her collection scatters. Can Kona find Stumpy and her children before it's too late? To find out, read GOOSEBERRY PARK!

2: If Only All Books Were This Good!
We love Cynthia Rylant and this is amongst her best. We were sad when this book came to an end. We wanted to keep reading! The story is funny and engaging. Both my children (ages 8 and 9) loved it and kept begging for more. I loved it equally.

3: This book is great!!
My 10-year-old daughter read this book in her 4th grade class. She loved it so much that I bought her one of her own and read it again with her at home. It is a really cute story. I can see why a 10-year-old would love it.

4: If only all children's books were like this!
This is my favorite story to read aloud to my second grade students. The characters are so endearing! Ms. Rylant paints a beautiful picture of true friendship without being preachy. She also includes enough suspense to hold the reader's attention and enough humor to keep them smiling. I love to read it to my students in late fall/early winter because of the vivid descriptions of the ice storm and changing weather. We feel like we're right there with Kona, Stumpy, and Murray! A truly remarkable story.
