1: Be careful when buying
The '65 version with illustrator Brinton Turkle gets 5 stars. What is currently showing on Amazon as the photo of the book cover is the original 1965 version. It is shown for the 65 and 1990 version. They have different illutstrators. This photo should only be shown with the '65 version. If you want the original make sure you are not buying the 90s version.

2: Great classic!
I can remember this book when I was quite young and have passed on the tradition to my little one. We use my old copy which is now about 30 years old and boy, is it a hit! It's just so cute to see the reaction of little ones when they see a bear and a mouse dressed in Victorian finery, try to explore their common interests. However, when they find that their interests are varied, they both break down and cry. But finally, ice cream brings them together in an old fashioned ice cream parlor and the two friends enjoy each other's company. A great first reader but also a great book to be enjoyed by toddlers. A true classic for all libraries.

3: The first book I ever read by myself, and now, my son's...
I'll never forget climbing into my dad's lap back in the early 70's and learning how to read this book. I can still quote the story from memory. What a great lesson about how different people can find common interests! After looking for it on-line for many months, I recently broke down and paid ... for a copy I hope my young son will enjoy as much as I did when I was his age. We both love ice cream, like Joe and Sam, so some things will never change!

5: A Favorite
I loved this book as a child & have my tattered copy to share with my children. I was thrilled when my daughter brought home her 1st grade reading book & found she would be reading the story in school. The illustrations are different, but it's still the same charming story & it was fun to compare the two books. This book is a definite favorite in our home!
