Cathy from Olympia, Washington, January 25, 2007

As Maurice Sendak states in his foreward, "The George and Martha books teach us nothing and everything." Indeed! George and Martha's relationship reminds me of a sibling relationship-- sometimes they fight and won't speak to each other, but they are always there for each other when it really counts, and are fiercely protective of each other. In one story, "Martha caused quite a splash," enabling George to climb back down the high board unnoticed. (The accompanying illustration is wonderful, with a geyser of water erupting from the pool and escaping the picture's border). Marshall managed the perfect balance of deceptively simple stories and illustrations.

I've read the whole book multiple times to my children (I lost count of the actual number some time ago). I must admit, however, even if I had no children, I would have purchased the book for myself. I absolutely ADORE the George and Martha stories! George and Martha are for children ages 2-102!
