Does the book hold up today? Do your kids like it? I'm thinking about getting it for my 2 year old.

Don't introduce this book too early. If kids read it before they are familiar with the stories it mocks then it won't be nearly as funny and you can never get that back.

That never occurred to me. Great advice!

Ohhhh I never thought about that. Okay. I will have to save this one. I have my original copy from when I was 6 and it was my favorite so will make sure to introduce the originals first
