The Seven-Year-Old Wonder Book

This is actually my second time ordering this book. We had a previous copy for an older child that got lost in a move. When my daughter recently turned seven, I remembered this book and knew we needed another copy. The stories are so gentle and heartwarming, and really touch on topics that are important to children this age. The parallels to their actual lives are presented in a sweet, gentle way. We read a little each day and I've heard my daughter retelling the stories to her dolls and stuff animals. They make an impression that builds the child up.

The main character is 6, not 7, but definitely speaks to any child who is still in the realm of magic. Great to read along with the seasons starting in early autumn through new year. Has a religious (Waldorf) slant

This was purchased to go with the Waldorf inspired home school curriculum Oak Meadow for the subject of Social Studies. This story was such a magical story about a little girl, Sylvia, who was about to celebrate her 7 year birthday. This story is a way to gently teach your child about empathy, helpfulness, kindness, trust, ext. Things that are really no longer taught in a common core classroom. I have 2 sons and they liked the book, even though it seems to be geared more to girls. Imps, sister in the bush, were all favorite characters. Highly recommend.

We love love love this book! Isabel Wyatt is a wonderful imaginative author. We have her other books as well. Each story is laden with wonderful imagery and a meaningful message. It's very unlike most of the "fluff" stories offered to children these days. The book is rich and fulfilling like all great stories are! I couldn't recommend this more highly. Both my son and daughter loved these stories, now that they are young adults they recall them with great fondness!

Whether you are applying the this into leading or just wanting a book to read to your children, this is it. Amazingly vivid story telling!

The Seven Year Old Wonder book is a treasure. I have always given this as a gift a good year prior to their seventh birthday and told the recipient that I could sense their readiness and awareness....so they are receiving just a bit early. Magical writing and journey.

I loved these stories when I was a kid! There are some editing errors.

I love this book. I bought it as a birthday gift for a little friend on her seventh birthday. It’s a sweet, simple story that follows a young girl through her seventh year and the pictures that she finds drawn for her as gifts while she sleeps. My four grown girls enjoyed this book many years ago and I am happy to introduce a new generation to its loveliness.

Amazing stories. Gentle and full of imagination.

I’ve been reading to my daughter aged 6 who has started class1 in Steiner school. Although she enjoys new setting also is missing her kindergarten. The stories are wonderfully magical, warm and healing. I see my daughter calmer and grounded since started the book.

Non bastano 5 stelle questo libro ne merita 10!semplicemente meraviglioso, consigliatissimo a tutti grandi e piccoli, prezioso per scuola parentale!

Bought for granddaughter's birthday - she says she is delighted with the stories and a lovely 7th birthday gift. Arrived very promptly.

Wonderful bedtime story book. Highly recommend to all 7 yr old parents.
