Sinbad and Me,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sinbad and Me (Paperback)
I loved this book as a child and I look for it at every used book store I come across. It got lost somewhere in between moves. I want to share it with my kids and grandkids (...). Reprint this book please... I'd buy several copies just for my family alone.

Sinbad & Me,
By "ibetheba" (West Covina, ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sinbad and Me (Paperback)
This book was one of my childhood favorites. I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Platt & have my paperback copy signed. With many reading the cover came off. How often do you a find a story that you can read over & over again with out being bored.I have wanted a new copy to share with the young readers in my family. I would recommend this book to a kid of any age. I am looking forward to reading it again as an adult.

Can Kids Still Have These Sorts of Adventures?,
By Sully "Aging tweener" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sinbad and Me (Paperback)
Forget free love, Vietnam, the peace movement, campus unrest, and inner-city strife -- we kids weren't paying attention to any of that. The 1960s were an ideal decade for children, perhaps the last truly innocent era. Kids were encouraged to learn, to wonder, to imagine, to dream. It was a big world, full of limitless horizons. This book captures all of that expansive optimism in the relationship between a boy and his bulldog. When I was 12 years old I couldn't put it down. Will "Sinbad and Me" make sense to kids today? I certainly hope so! And I hope this novel is back in print by the time my five-month-old boy learns to read.

One of my favorites,
By Craig Mautner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sinbad and Me (Paperback)
I must have read this book 15 times as a kid. I loved it. I've been looking for it in every used bookstore I've come across. I can't think of a book that deserves a re-release more.

GET THIS BACK IN PRINT!,
By Walter Smith - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sinbad and Me (Paperback)
As good as a juvenile mystery gets! As an avid juvenile mystery reader in the 1970's this was by far the best mystery I read. My kids are reading my copy and I'd love to replace it with a new one. The only other Kin Platt book I read was atrocious, so I'm not sure that this book is representative of his work.
