A couple of bad references
Alcohol reference & bad language don’t need to be in a child’s book

Great story with a good message!
This is a fun spin on Stone Soup. It teaches that we all need to help each other out whether you have lots to give or not.

The right recipe for an excellent children's book.
Like the soup, Bone Button Borscht, is a tale that grips the mind because the recipe is spot on. Good beginning, middle and end. A yarn that children and adults will want read over and over again. When children's stories are often so one dimensional these days, this story stands out as meaty and gritty.

Heartwarming!!
An enchanting story!! Explores prejudice and comorodery. A more contemporary story about the emperor's new clothes. Very heartwarming. Loved it.
