Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
Set in picturesque Paris, this tale of a brave little girl's trip to the hospital is as appealing yesterday as it was in 1940. The combination of spirited heroine, timelessly appealing art, cheerful humor, and rhythmic text makes 'Madeline' a perennial favorite with children of all ages. Full color.

Amazon.com Review:
No child could resist this adorable, 9-inch-tall, rag-doll-soft Madeline--complete with appendix-removal scar! This Parisian schoolgirl sports a jaunty felt hat with a trailing grey ribbon, perfect for the mischievous redhead who is not afraid of mice and pooh-poohs the tiger at the zoo. Her blue sailour dress is removable for frequent scar viewing! Each doll comes in a big, splashy gift box (12 inches by 12 inches by 4 inches) with one unabridged paperback edition of Ludwig Bemelmans's original Madeline ('and that's all there is--there isn't any more'). (Ages 3 and older)

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - a true classic
This is the very first book of the series that is an absolute nesesity in the library of all little girls



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A classic!
I loved the Madeline books as a child, so when my daughter turned two I ordered this for her.... and it's truly one of her favorite books. The story is a classic, and the illustrations are as charming as ever! Thirty + years hasn't dimmed it's magic for me.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Beautiful, memorable book
This beautifully written and illustrated, very engaging story, is a classic of children's literature and a delight in every way. You may begin reading this to a child from the age of 7-8 mos on. One of my favorites as a child (65 yrs ago) and so for both my daughters. I have just given this new addition to my baby granddaughter.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A great children's book
"In an old house in Paris that was covered in vines, lived twelve little girls in two straight lines." In 1939, Ludwig Bemelmans began writing stories about a group of girls in a school in Paris, foremost among whom was the irrepressible Madeline. Those books are now considered classics in children's literature, having collected many awards.

This is a great children's book, one that my four-year-old likes having read to her over and over again. Indeed, we now have it down to where she finishes the sentences for me. "In two straight lines they..." I start, and she finishes with, "broke their bread." Well, it's a lot of fun. We both love this book and highly recommend it!



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A Classic Among Childrens Books
This classic book is great reading to children as soon as they can sit still enough to listen and look. A delightful, warm and imaginative story.
