Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not worth the money
There are better books out there for Ring Bearers than this book. As other reviewers have already stated, it's WAY too specific (the narrator has to miss a soccer game). Also, the illustrations are virtually identical from page to page: an oversized bowtie in different colors.
Save your money.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Very Impersonal
I bought this for my son from my first marriage, he is 5. He is the ring bearer for my upcoming wedding. I was mad that it has a story of some other little boy who was the ringbearer for his brother. I also hated the fact that he talked about his gift from the groom, a watch that could go under water, so now that is what my son seems to think he will get. It would have been nice if the story had not gone into so much detail, and left it a bit open to the imagination.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Might not fit everyone's circumstances
At first I thought the book was really cute, but I agree with other reviewers that it was too specific. I realized I'll have to return it when I got to the page that said that his mom and dad held hands through the wedding, as my little ringbearer's parents are divorced. Disappointing that they wouldn't take that possibility into consideration.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Cute but....
We were a little disappointed that the story said the ring bearer collected $5.00 from guests at the reception and was able to go to the Zoo. We had to have my sister skip that page or we would have a four year old thinking he is able to collect money at the reception. Otherwise it was a good book and perfect for our young ring bearer.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What a Great Book For a Special Time
I recently was married and in addition to flower girls, I had a young nephew as the ring bearer. He was a little timid about performing the task as he was going to have to walk by himself down the aisle! At the rehearsal dinner I gave him the book and he loved it. For the first time he realized that he was an important part of the ceremony and at the wedding it was clear that he took great pride in his job. The book made him feel better about the whole process and was a great way to give him something ... Read More
