I received this Terry Treetop Collection ebook for free in exchange for my review.
These stories are pretty cute, they seem like good stories for the kindergarten age set. They don't have a clear "moral" or learning lesson like some kids books do, but that's okay. Sometimes books should just be entertaining. The art isn't my taste, but it's cute and suitable to the subject matter. One major issue I have with the art is that some of the character art is clearly derivative. The cow in the first book is Cow from Cow and Chicken. The little kitten is Marie from The Aristocats. The fawn is Bambi. The chipmunks are Chip and Dale. There are probably more that I've missed, but it did bug me a bit to see such clearly derivative art. I worry that the author may face potential lawsuits over this art, because Disney seems to have a bit of a hair trigger about use of its intellectual properties. That said, it is a cute book series that's a good choice for young kids. I would recommend buying physical books rather than the ebooks, but that's just because I prefer physical books.
