My oldest is now 9, my youngest is 6 and I read this to my kids all the time. My version has become a little twisted as the kids have gotten older: "No! Don't go so close to the sun!" A fun read, even without the extras. ;-D

A simple but imaginative story for very small children--plus an excellent literacy-development tool---with innovative illustrations and format.
