Editorial Reviews:

Eloise is a little girl who lives at The Plaza Hotel in New York. She is not yet pretty but she is already a Person.

Henry James would want to study her.

Queen Victoria would recognize her as an Equal.

The New York Jets would want to have her on their side.

Lewis Carroll would love her (once he got over the initial shock).

She knows everything about The Plaza. She is interested in people when they are not boring.

She has Inner Resources.

If you take her home with you, you will always be glad you did.

Summary: Spunky, Sweet, & Super fun!
Comment: Eloise At The Plaza is absolutely one of the best books you can find for children. Sure, the character isn't very polite, but when reading Eloise to a child, you can point out Eloise's downsides and laugh about her good sides, for she has many of them. I am a teenager, and I first read Eloise when I was six, actually. I got Eloise At Christmastime as a birthday gift. I have read all of the Eloise books except Eloise Takes A Bawth, of which I've read excerpts & seen in stores.

Eloise is a great character to reminisce over and have a great laugh with. These timelessly classic books are sure to bring a smile to your face and a thump to your heart. Eloise rocks! xoxox

Summary: My little ones found it disturbing
Comment: My 6 year old received this as a birthday gift. I thought: wow, great, very nostalgic. After reading it to her, she gave me a funny look and said "I didn't like that". While it does have some charming moments, she seemed to us to be a sad and lonely little girl. Her fantasy about her doll getting in an accident and gushing blood and being sawn in pieces was really too graphic for my children, even though they knew it was being made up. Just found it sort of depressing. Where are the parents?

Customer Rating:

Summary: not what I want my child to emulate.
Comment: interesting to read as an adult. Wouldn't want to read to a young child.

Customer Rating:

Summary: ooh I just love Eloise!
Comment: Awesome book! Totally loved it--my three year old finds her fascinating. "Why does she want to pour a pitcher of water down the mail chute, mommy?" She's a naughty girl but such a wonderfully creative and self reliant one! I think she is a great role model for my little girls!

Summary: Mother of Two
Comment: I would think someone who would be offended by the style in which "Eloise" is written would be "smart" enough to know that the expression is "for all intents and purposes" and not "intensive purposes."
