redbarn66: Love this book and bought it here to gift; I have my own as well. Would get this for any age except a young child. There's no way to write that below. I bought it for an English language learner adult.

Mrs. Monk: Took a star off as the book basically fell apart.

Notoriously Clever: The premise of this book is that you don't know how good you have it until things get worse. It use humor to show a small house get more and more crowded ... until it's time to let all the animals out.

Rachael: This was one of my favorite books as a child, and it is still as funny today as it was then. 'It Could Always be Worse' is a Yiddish folktale. It tells the story of a poor, unfortunate, hardworking man who lives in an extremely small house with his wife and children. One day, unable to take it any longer, he visits his Rabbi and asks for his advice. The Rabbi tells him to go home and bring his chickens, rooster and goose inside to live with them. Much hilarity ensues. This charming story about being grateful for what you have, and remembering that no matter how bad your situation seems, it could always be worse, is a delightful read. The beautiful, heavily detailed, illustrations give the story a strong sense of time and place. And, if you are fortunate to have a Grandparent with an Eastern European/Yiddish accent to read it to you, all the better. Practically perfect.

Annie Clayton: The best kind of picture book for older children. Makes them think. Perfect for nursery groups. Very, very funny. And the usual Zemach illustrations that are so enriching.
