We love Harry November 10, 2008
We came across the Harry books at our library and my daughter (2) loved them so much that I purchased them for her. They are so much fun to read.
Harry is Universal December 26, 2007

There is something universal about the appeal of Harry the dog and his adventures. Little children who have pets in their home environment will easily identify with ALL the 'Harry' stories.
no roses for harry December 4, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am so excited!! today I was seeing a patient in Greenville, South carolina and much to my surprise, sitting on the floor of her home was, No Roses for Harry. When I was a child (I am currently 54) this was one of my favorite books. When I had my children I tried to find this series of Harry books but could not remember the names. Oh so depressing. My depression lifted today. At this point in my life I have college and high school students, but the future is bright. Maybe my grandchildren can now benefit. So excited. I can guarantee any youngster will sit down and listen to this book, over and over again.
Harry Just Does Not Like Roses May 7, 2007

When Grandma sends the family a sweater for Harry, he knows right away he doesn't like it. It was a green sweater with roses on it. Harry is white dog with black spots and that's the look he likes. He tries to lose the sweater time and time again, but people keep bringing it back, then a bird grabs a lose strand and flies away, unravelling the sweater as she goes. Soon the sweater is gone, vanishing before Harry's eyes and he is happy. But then he learns Grandma is coming to visit and he is worried.
The family looks all over for the sweater, but can't find it. Then when Grandma arrives, she takes Harry for a walk in the park and up in a tree they see a bird with a new nest which looks exactly like Harry's sweater. This is a nice story. My little guy just loves it and frankly I prefer these children's books from the middle of the last century. They really knew how to illustrate them back then.
A Classic! March 16, 2007

One thing I have found myself doing is going back and buying all these classic books that I read as a youngster. My little one LOVES Harry! He's just as popular with the kids today as he was 50 years ago when he first was published. He gets read over, and over, and over..... in our house and I keep getting requests for more Harry books! Highly recommend!
