 good, but not as good as the first book September 17, 2007
The first Russell the sheep book was wonderful, especially as it dealt with insomnia. My son loves both books, and the artwork is very good in both. But I have a slight preference for the first book as it deals with an ongoing challenge with young children (sleep). The "lost treasure" book may be better for the 5 - 7 crowd rather than the 3 - 5 crowd. Either way, it's still a good book.
Comes in second place August 11, 2007
We like this book well enough. The illustrations are top notch--somewhat similar to Wallace and Gromit. My son loves to trace Russell's long hat all over the page. I'm not sure my children like the story line of this book as much as they like Russell the Sheep. It seems to be missing something but I can't pinpoint what that "something" is. Maybe the story is less ironic than the first or perhaps the lack of Pirates (despite the reference to treasure) make it less appealing to my little ones. I suggest you check out Russell the Sheep first and save this book for later.
 Quickly became a favorite of my 2 1/2 year old January 15, 2007

Marvelous illustrations, heart-warming story. It quickly became a favorite of my young son, who is 2 1/2.

A beautifully illustrated book that held my niece spellbound. The rich artwork and humor also make it a pleasure for any adults who get to read this as a bedtime story. What I like about the Russell series is the little lesson for the kids, in each story. This time, we see Russell learn what is truly valuable in life. At the end of the story, instead of arguing about bedtime, my niece wanted to see our family photo album! We had a `quality' moment that followed directly from storytime and because of that, I had to come write a glowing review!!! Hope some of you have a similar wonderful experience.
A Great Children's Illustration Style September 20, 2006
You have seen Rob Scotton's work in a wide variety of places--what a pleasure to see him illustrating children's books. Light and zany, you can't help but be charmed by Scotton's characters. The story is short and simple, especially appealing for young readers or listeners, ages 3-5. The illustrations are so good, however, that you wish there was more story to necessitate more pages in the book.
