real life lessons, 2008-08-29
I always enjoyed this book as a child. I recently pulled it out of some of my things and read it. Reading it as an adult I realize its true meaning and value. It offers real lessons on life, the people you meet along the way and how to gracefully just keep on walking down the road...

Watch out for "stupid" and "dummy" name calling, 2008-05-04
I love Arnold Lobel's work and have many of his books for my 23 month old daughter. Grasshopper on the Road is more of the same simple, lovable stories you'd expect from Lobel, with one exception: In the first story, "The Club", the grasshopper runs across some beetles who are celebrating morning. When it comes out that grasshopper enjoys the afternoon and evening, too, the beetles turn on him and call him "stupid" and "dummy". I'm keeping the book, but will be covering those words and replacing them with something more suitable to young children. Other than that, the book is great.

We loved this book, 2008-04-05
It is a funny and easy to read series of stories. All books by Arnold Lobel are written in a very good language and have unconventional plots, so a parent does not get bored and a child enjoys them. Before I discovered Arnold Lobel, I became exasperated with children's books that all seem to follow one of cliche plots. These stories are different from the mainstream children literature, best described as friendly fables for little kids.

Elena's Mom, 2007-03-20
I bought this book along with the Owl At Home for my 22 mo. old who loves for me to read to her. She really enjoys the book and can refer to the story titles that she wants me to read, however, in "The Club" story the words "stupid" and "dummy" are used. I penciled them out and replaced them with "silly". I feel that my 22 mo. old does not needs to learn these word right now. Other then that I recommend this book.

Grasshopper Review, 2005-03-01
I would recommend this book to anyone, both young and old. The grasshopper wants to go on a journey and he finds a road. On this road he encounters many insects different from himself. His meetings are funny and make you want to turn the page to see what he might encounter next. It is easy to read for early readers and is a cute and silly story that makes reading fun.
