This is the first review I am writing for paperbackswap.com, I just had to review it. I really didn't like this book. I am floored that it is a NYTimes best seller- it just didn't draw me in at all- the plot is almost non-existent, and the book is just too "high and haughty" with its lofty philosopical ponderings and weighty vocabulary. I couldn't wait for it to be over so I could start on a new book- (I never stop a book without finishing it to the end) :0)

Great book- my son's favorite animal is buffalo- and he has me read this to him every night. He is 2 1/2 years old, just to give you a sense of the age appropriateness for this book- although I think it could be good for up to 4 or 5 years old.
