Although I have read and enjoyed a great many books from both Kimmel and Stevens - this is my fifty-sixth book from the former, and my thirteenth from the latter - I cannot say that Nanny Goat and the Seven Little Kids particularly impressed me. The story is engaging enough, and the artwork is cute, but I just couldn't work up much enthusiasm for either, and I can readily understand why this is not one of Kimmel and Stevens' better-known titles. Tastes vary of course, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with this retelling, so despite my own indifference, I would still recommend it to fairy-tale fans and to picture-book readers looking for stories from the Brothers Grimm.
