Stuff Hardcover – Illustrated, September 20, 2011

Loved this book, "even his stuff had stuff"! YES! I got this for my daughter who likes things and this book did showed how stuff could be too much. My daughter is 5 though and she missed the lesson mostly as she was busy looking and talking about all the different stuff on each page asking which was my favorite. But we will keep reading and I am sure it will get through.

A very clever story about stuff moving from physical objects to be in good times. It’s a wonderful message for kids good for the 5 to 8 year old range.

I love this book and bought one for a gift for my colleague who is a Kindergarten teacher !!

Just a fun read about an important lesson that most of us should have learned in childhood, but didn't.

Wonderful book. Adults would benefit from reading it as well as children that it is meant for. This would make a great gift for a child that can't seem to get enough.

I bought this for a school library,but bought a second copy for my husband who is always saving "important/I might need it someday" stuff. Cute story.

Cute book and it gives a good message.

Edward had all kinds of stuff. His house was full of stuff. His friends no longer came to visit Edward because his house was packed full of his stuff. He wanted to spend time with the stuff instead of his friends.One day a big truck drove down the street in front of Edward's house and caused it to shake. All the stuff in the house collapsed and trapped Edward inside. He had a tiny space to stay that was surrounded by stuff.Edward's friends were worried about him. They dug through the stuff in the house and found Edward dazed and alone. Edward finally decided to get rid of the stuff.Edward's friends helped him clean out his house. They sold, donated and trashed "stuff" until it was all gone. Edward had his house back!I believe that children must be taught to organize their stuff. They must learn how to keep the things that are most valuable to them and discard the things that they no longer use."Stuff" is an excellent book to share with children of all ages. The story is humorous and fun. Things take a serious turn when Edward chooses his stuff over relationships and experiences with his friends and family.Life is about choices. This book will teach children that it is nice to have "stuff", but friends and good times are so much nicer. Highly recommended.
