Classic kids story:
I loved this book when I was a little girl and now I enjoy reading it to my son. It features three stories starring Mitzi and her baby brother Jacob. In the stories, Mitzi experiences an illness, attempts to take a cab to Grandma's with Jacob, and meets the President. The stories are clever and the colorful illustrations add to the vividness of the tales.
Still love it years later:
My grandmother read this to me when I was little, and now my 2 and 4 year old love it too. They like the long breathless sentences, repeating all the little details. The pictures are a bit...odd...(little kids with the faces of old people)...but that's the only negative I can think of, and the stories are such fun that I can overlook that!
Tell Me A Mitzi:
"Tell Me A Mitzi" was the favorite story of my daughter and now I was able to send it to my grand-daughter to enjoy. The stories are a slice of a little girls everyday life. The illustrations are unusual...that is the drawings of the people are very interesting and fun. Great book!
A Funny Classic With Great Illustrations:
This was a favorite of mine as a little girl. It includes 3 stories told by Martha's mother about "Mitzi" and her family. My 3 year old daughter loves the book too! Though a bit wordy for such a youngster, she enjoys the detailed and humorous pictures. I believe she'll slowly grow into the book and eventually like reading it to herself!
