"I think this would be great for kids learning German or learning English."
"My 3 year old is bilingual (German and English) but I am slowly learning German - so we both enjoy this book."
"My kids love this book, and their German-speaking grandparents love that they can read it in German and have my daughter read the English words."
"Very good book for the little ones to start hearing another language if they're not already."
"As a teacher one of the things I love about this book is the fact that it is a total vocabulary lesson for size words (big, small, tiny, huge,etc) in a very cute story."
"I read it several times because it brought back wonderful memories of first learning a different language, It is the kind of book you want to share with others."
"However she is an avid reader and started reading a few German words."

"Now, understand that there is no one single product or even one single approach that is sufficient for learning any subject, whether it's language or computer technology or re-keying a door lock, but an often-overlooked method is to start from the beginning, just like you did in learning your own native language."
"I am a beginner student of the German language and I want to improve my comprehension of German sentence structure. This way, you can read through the German and if you get stuck, you can easily see what it is supposed to mean in the column to the right, making comprehension very easy."
"Some of the readings are mind-numbingly boring and none are really very interesting (at least not in the first half)."
"However based on what I got out of it in terms of improving my German , I would be happy to buy some of the additional books in this series."
"I found this book through an Amazon recommendation and figured I'd give it a shot."
"I have completed a couple of introductions to German, but this book introduces you to reading German, not just asking simple questions then replying."
"A good way to check on all the basic grammar you are learning because reading and speaking is what it is all about."

I would think a child would love to have this be a book to read or have read to him or her so they could learn to read it themselves and understand from both languages. By the way, I have downloaded the German narrators on my fire but they didn't work any better than the English version. This nice part about the DuoLingo app is you do get to practice speaking the language."
"Loved this book!"
"My daughter loved this to read to her twins."
"When learning German, simplicity is helpful."
"Nice book to start German learning for kids."
"Terrible layout, terrible writing, unimaginative story, cheap and bad quality print."

"As German is my third language, it has taken some time to become familiar with all of the vocabulary, but given a basic understanding of the sentence structure and having read this story more than once in English, I found this a good exercise."
"Product was in great condition, exactly as advertised."
"I selected this book because it is a kid's book and I assumed the vocabulary would be challenging but not too challenging."
"Nevertheless, Rowling does a good job of setting up the scene for the other books."
"Great for helping bone up on your foreign language skills (but only if you're familiar with the story.)."
"I am an American learning German."
"Since I also read the English version this fits like a glove in my hand."

In Shel Silverstein's popular tale of few words and simple line drawings, a tree starts out as a leafy playground, shade provider, and apple bearer for a rambunctious little boy. At this point in the story, the double-page spread shows a pathetic solitary stump, poignantly cut down to the heart the boy once carved into the tree as a child that said "M.E. When there's nothing left of her, the boy returns again as an old man, needing a quiet place to sit and rest. (All ages) --Karin Snelson “If you’re looking for a children’s book that teaches generosity or unselfishness, most people will point you right to The Giving Tree , Shel Silverstein’s lovely story of a tree that will do anything for the boy it loves—and for good reason.

It has turned into a discussion book for all my grandkids. The book is a hardback & comes with a cover resembling the cover of the book."
"One of my favorite books with a great lesson for children on giving/taking and appreciation."
"Must have for all children."
"Best childhood book ever - adults should re-read every year as well."
"Great story for my 6 year old who reads voraciously.."
"Just like I remebered!"
"One of my favorite books ever."
"Every child should hear and read the story of The Giving Tree as a tool for understanding the goodness and usefulness of nature and all of life’s gifts."
