There once was a poor farmer and his wife who had three sons. Their names were Peter, Paul and Hans Humdrum. All three sons head out to make their fortunes. See how Hans Humdrum , the youngest of the sons uses wisdom to make his fortune.

Many years ago, in Denmark, there lived a man and his three sons. The eldest son knew the whole dictionary by heart. The middle son knew every word that had been printed in the newspapers for three years back. Hans, the youngest son, was quite different. He was not so learned as his brothers so everyone called him clumsy Hans. But it is clumsy Hans who wins the princess at the end of the story.

Waldo, One, Two, Three is mainly a book that is for educational purposes. So I would say that this book is good for an any time book just to pass the time and if you are trying to help your child learn a few things.

Waldo, One, Two, Three is a book about a dog by the name of Waldo, who is going to teach your child how to count. Waldo teaches your child how to count by counting animals and what they are doing. With each page, the animal goes consecutively with the number. It states what type of animal it is and what it will be doing. So not only does this book teach your child how to count, but it also teaches your child about animals as well.

Bound by a common thread—a serene foolishness cropping up in many a character and absurd situation—the three charming tales in this long unavailable book are not as well-known as they deserve to be. Wanda Gág’s interpretations of “The Clever Wife” and “The Three Feathers” are exceptionally funny, while “Goose Hans” is particularly hard to find in Grimm collections. Gág’s uniquely American translations and her equally enchanting illustrations will provide sheer delight for the young and old.
