This is a fun read for younger kids. It has a silly theme that keeps the kids attention, but gives them a great lesson along the way.I was reading it to my 4 year old, and even her older brother(8yr old) sat down to listen! They just love floating, talking fudgesicle. The main theme is Timmy trying to learn how to make friends, and learns sharing and being nice makes people want to be around you.While my kids don't really have a problem making friends it is still a great lesson to always share and act kind.The illustrations are wonderful, and every page has a beautifully drawn scene. It really helps to keep the short attention spans there sitting and listening to the story.I defiantly recommend this for younger kids. My 8 year old got a chuckle and sat to listen, but I doubt he would really read it on his own, so I would guess that his age is pushing it. My 4 year old has already asked to read it again, so it seems like a winner. She needs all the help she can get with sharing!Younger than eight is perfect, but of course parents know their kids best so your mileage may vary. By his age the lessons it is teaching are already learned, but if have a special situation it could be great for any age child.
