The Serendipity Collection: Featuring 7 Classic Serendipity Stories With Your Favorite Characters! (Serendipity)

Rating:
Summary: Not really classics, but a good collection all the same.
Review: 'The Serendipity Collection' includes Zippity Zoom, Ming Ling, Butterwing, Serendipity, Sassafras, Rhubarb and Memily.

Cosgrove is a brilliant childrens' author. His books are definitely worth your time if you haven't checked them out yet.

I grew up reading some of his ealier works and always looked foward to getting the newest edition to the series at the bookstore. The illustrations in particular are consistently well-drawn and enchanting.

Hopefully there will be more Cosgrove collections released in the future. This one is a good start and very enjoyable, but not quite full of what I'd call classics. Maybe the next time we'll see Leo the Lop or Trafalgar True.

Review: I have read the Serendipity books to my daughter when she was young, she had almost the entire collection, but being in the military and moving from place to place, we lost a lot of the collection. I found the Serendipity Collection, in hard bound, with 7 wonderful stories in it, purchased it, and now I read it to my grandchildren. Once again Serendipity is being read in my house again. My grandchildren, which are 6 and 5 yrs. old, love the stories. They turn the tv OFF when it is bedtime and grab the book and wait for me to come to read the stories to them. When a child will turn the Disney Channel off, for a story book reading, that alone says a lot about the book. My grandchildren love this book, and yes, I will be buying more and more of this series. The pictures in the book are so fantastic and life like, I really am glad to find this book, and the morals in the book are just what we try to teach our children and grandchildren. This book will be a joy to anyone that loves to read to children and watch their faces as they see the darling pictures.
