Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
The jolly and exciting tale of the little boy who lost his blue coat and his blue trousers and his purple shoes but who was saved from the tigers to eat 169 pancakes for his supper, has been universally loved by generations of children. First written in 1899, the story has become a childhood classic and the authorized American edition with the original drawings by the author has sold hundreds of thousands of copies.

Little Black Sambo is a book that speaks the common language of all nations, and has added more to the joy of little children than perhaps any other story. They love to hear it again and again; to read it to themselves; to act it out in their play.

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Satisfaction
I had this book when I was a little girl and lost it. I loved it then, and learned that it had been "taken off the shelves." Hoping that Amazon had it available, I checked. Yippee! It was there. It came promptly and the condition was excellent. Thank you so much.

LITTLE BLACK SAMBO
OUR FIVE YEAR OLD GREAT GRAND DAUGHTER WAS TOTALLY TAKEN WITH THE STORY OF "LITTLE BLACK SAMBO. WE GAVE HER TWO COPIES, ONE FOR OUR HOME ONE FOR HER TO TAKE TO HER HOME. WE READ TO HER ONE TIME AND THEN SHE WAS ABLE TO READ IT TO US. (SHE CANNOT READ! WE ARE SO GLAD THAT AMAZON HAS THIS BOOK.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Little Black Sambo
It's a shame that a few people can tell an Author what to write. Censoring a classic is a sin.
I'm glad that Little Black Sambo is still available as it was originally writen and illistrated.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Disappointed
The actual book is very small (5"x4") which makes it hard to see the pictures clearly which appear muddied. If I had known the book was this small I would not have purchased it because it is not conducive for reading to a child, difficult to hold and look at at the same time.
