5.0 out of 5 stars Still the same, 15 Nov 2010
This review is from: Little Black Sambo (Hardcover)
I read this book when I was only 4 years old and I am delighted to see that it is still the same. Nothing has changed in all those years. I love this book. I am giving it to my nephew for Christmas. A sparcity of texte, exquisite illustrations (and the crimson soles and crimson linings are still there!)and it is still the same size!

5.0 out of 5 stars Rembember your audience, 25 Aug 2011
This review is from: Little Black Sambo (Hardcover)
Sadly, I bought this book for the child of a friend who was born in the 70s. It was returned to Amazon, as being socially and culturally unaccceptable. Such a heartache, this is a beautiful childs' classic. I love it, and would recommend it to any child. Just be sure the parent isn't so closed-minded as to reject it because the Tamil people in the story are called 'Black'.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favourite, 26 Mar 2011
This review is from: Little Black Sambo (Hardcover)
I still have my original copy of this book, as I loved it so much, and I am now 68 years old! The original was larger and the colours were so vivid. My poor mother had to read it over and over again, I just couldn't get enough of it. My 2 daughters loved it and now my 6 grand-children are passionate about it, just as I was. I love this pocket version just as much.

I bought the American copy too and was disappointed as the colours were darker and different and the last page was missing where they were all sitting down at the table eating the pancakes.
