How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsMy 7 Year Old Loves this Book
Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2018
My 7 year old daughter is a good, but reluctant reader. It is hard to find books she will willingly read. This book was one of the few she reads over and over again. The reading level is probably too low for her and it doesn't push her reading skills very much, but at least she's reading! I would definitely recommend.

1.0 out of 5 starsNeeds more adventure
Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2019
This book needed to be longer, have more detail, and have more adventure. I did not like it. One of the sisters was very not smart. The other was pretty good but not my favorite. -my 6 year old son
(I thought it was cute and would give it 4 stars.)

I liked Ling and Ting (Not Exactly the Same) by Grace Lin. The sister's haircut part was funny. They were fun, cute sisters. It was interesting that one of them ate with chopsticks. I loved how the sisters liked each other.

My five year old has loved this book for the past four months. Since she received it, it’s been her absolute favorite and we read it together (and now she reads it on her own) all the time. All of Grace Lin’s books are terrific, and this one is a real “standout.”

Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2014

My 4 and 6 year old love to read this book over and over again. It is whimsical and a great reminder for them that siblings are different.We have the Ling and Ting Share a Birthday book too and they ask for that one before bed too. I love how they have short chapters that are ministories.
I hope Grace Lin will write more of these Ling and Ting books, they deserve a whole series and she would have a guaranteed following!

5.0 out of 5 stars God some laughs from my Students
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2015
Verified Purchase
My first and second grade readers really enjoyed this book. Several times they laughed as they encountered the antics of Ling and Ting. Even though this was a 3rd grade level book, my students still could read most of the words and got the meaning of the stories inside. I like how one story built on the other. My twin 1st grade female students were especially excited that this was a book about twin girls.

This book is the perfect level for my first grade rising readers. The book includes feelings and stories that the students can relate to. There are also many words that they can read on their own. Thanks Grace Lin!
