Book Reviews of Puff, the Magic Dragon (Music Sales America)
Book Review: Growing up
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember how much I loved this sort of sad song as a child, and I couldn't resist the book writer Pete Yarrow helped pen.
My oldest leaves for college next week- the sad song is no longer so sad- the endings' bittersweet twist perfectly captured how I feel watching him prepare for his new life.
Book Review: Finally a book for all generations to share
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is incredible, the music wonderful, and the story of friendship, and the bittersweet aspects of growing up is timeless. Buy for yourself, buy for your kids, grandkids, nieces & nephews, buy for your parents, grandparents and friends. This multi-generational tale will be an evergreen in your family library.Book Review: Loss of Innocence
Summary: 5 Stars
I just purchased this book last week, having been absolutely charmed by the illustrations. It sent me down Memory Lane in a nanosecond, and I will be buying additional copies for my grandchildren. As for the absolute and utter hogwash about "Puff" being drug-related, I can only chalk that rumor up to the drug culture of the '60's and '70's, which has left a lot of unnecessary chaos on its wake. Please see the following link to Snopes, which is a great source of determining what is myth and what is truth: [...]Book Review: Questionable?
Summary: 3 Stars
I remember reading this book when I was a kid and lately I am not so sure that this is a book to be read to younger children.
It seems to me that it is a book with weird imagery and slight references to drug use.
I coulde be worng but I know I am not alone in this asumption.
I am all for kid's exercising their imagination, I just don't agree with this book.
Book Review: three generations of reading Puff The Magic Dragon
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been reading Puff from 1957 to my children,later my grandchildren, and now I will read it to my greatgrand daughter Nevaeh Eve.This book is timeless,and will entertain young and old for many years to come. I have learned that children do not play makebelieve any more and that is very sad,
