Customer Reviews

one of my favorite books

This is one of my favorite books; one of the few I can read to the kids again and again without falling asleep. They think it's a little odd, however, that I laugh so much in the process.

Alot of fun to read

My 7 and 4 yr old boys love this story. We all get giggling so hard when we read it. (Course, I read it with a little twang for Aunt Nancy, and a deep-goofy voice for Cousin Lazybones...so that adds to it.) This is a fun book to read over and over again.

My kids LOVE this book!

Aunt Nancy and Cousin Lazybones was a BIG hit with my 4-year-old and my 3-year-old! Every page kept their attention with great illustrations, instantly developed characters, and a VERY funny story full of cute little phrases. "I'd be pleased as petunias to help," said Cousin Lazybones. They love to pretend they have a "hitch in their gitalongs" like good old Cousin Lazybones did! I also stopped after every lazy thing Cousin Lazybones did and asked my children what SHOULD he have done? They knew right away! They really enjoyed this book, and I REALLY enjoyed reading aloud to them OVER and OVER!
