Summary: JUST PLAIN FUN
Review: I don't think there is really any educational value that does along with this book, but it is still my favorite. I have a copy from quite a while ago, and I never get tired of looking at the beautiful colors and funny poems. If you want a nice book to look at with your kids, or just one to make your day a little brighter, then definitely get this book. Even though I am 21 years old, I wouldn't give up my copy for the world.

Summary: An Attic Treasure
Review: I had been trying to explain how great this book was to my husband! After delving in my old things I have recovered the 1969 edition with my scribbles on the inside. It was a thrill to re-read! I would often have some of the images in my head and wonder 'where is that crazy book?' It stays with you. I can't wait to share it with my little one! Me peaceful!

Summary: What a Mind Opening Book!
Review: I have a tattered and discolored copy of this book, given to me in the early '70s, that I have read and re-read since I was little. I just purchased a new copy for my baby girl to grow into - might be a couple years, but this is a book I want around the house for her. I imagine it is probably best for ages 4 and up. As a kid I loved this book for its illustrations, circular poems, paradoxs, word-play and sensitive wit. I would pour though it over and again, catching a different nuance with each read. As an adult I can only admire the contributions I believe this book made to helping me think in an unrestrained, "out-of-the-box" and creatively analytical fashion. This book has helped me think, and helped me grasp complicated thoughts... even find great pleasure in them.

Summary: My favorite as a child and still at the top of my list
Review: I have the original 1969 edition and I still read it when I need a chuckle. Creative, inventive and just plain silly. It doesn't get much better than this...

Summary: The return of a childhood friend
Review: In 1969 I was five years old and learning to read. "Arm in Arm" was an enigmatic treasure, and a family favorite. As I entered adulthood, our copy of "Arm in Arm" was long gone, probably falling victim to one of the impromptu 5-cent booksales my brother and I used to hold in our front yard. I couldn't find a copy in the bookstores, but never really gave up the search. When I found the book on Amazon.com, I ordered three copies. My brother and I are now in our mid 30's, but we (and hopefully someday our children) will always have this wonderful book in our lives. And of course Mom gets a copy, too!

Summary: How happy I am to be on Amazon
Review: It is very exciting to read people's comments about my books.Unlike the gratification of my performing where I can get immediateattention from the world mother, a printed book is sent out into the world and I don't see the reaction. That people have been inspired to become artists by my book ARM IN ARM is thrilling to me. Thank you Amazon for making this exchange available. It's wonderful to read how my books FORTUNATELY and THIRTEEN have influenced people. I stopped doing picture books for twelve years. Now that I am back as a 'born again' picture book artist I feel I am doing useful work. My newest book SLEEPYTIME RHYME sold out before pub date! The other two published this year PEANUT BUTTER PARTY and I LOVE YOU are both selling extremely well as has FORTUNATELY for 35 years.

Summary: The BEST and the WACKIEST
Review: My family was lucky enough to come across this book a bit over 30 years ago. The book disappeared long ago. It impressed all four of us kids so much as we grew up. I still quote out of it to my 13-year-old son (who has a dry wit and an unusual drawing style) - He loves what I share with him. Can't wait to actually show him the book!

Summary: The Begining of Wonder
Review: My introduction to this book was at an age when I had first begun to read. While I did read and enjoy the rhymes and word play, my imagination was captured by the images. The way they seemed to parrallel my simple understanding of the world around reinforced something that stayed with me for years. It must have been the begining of wonder at that time and this book, more than any other, gave me a point of depature for that adventure of mind and senses. As I grew older I treasured this book and kept it with me as I moved off to college. It was so precious to me that I gave it to the first great love of my life. She is gone and no longer has a place in my life, but Arm in Arm does. It represents a time when all was new and the world was as wonder filled as I allowed it to be. I greatly appreciate Remy creating this book and hope he gained as much from that process as I did from reading it. Needless to say, it will be the first book I read to my children and I hope that they read to themselves.
