Picture Perfect

This is currently my favprite book to give to new mothers. (I'm keeping a copy for myself, too.) Together, text and pictures perfectly convey the energy and excitement of a curly-headed toddler out for a day of exploration followed by her good-humored, patient mother. (And, oh, those poor shoes!) A fun choice to giggle over with a preschooler. Bouquets to author and artist.

Adorable

Oh my goodness, this book is adorable! the text is bouncy and the illustrations burst off the page! My 2 year old loves to chime in 'Uh oh' and 'oh no!' during the refrain!

So much fun

We happened upon this book in a vacation home on Martha's Vineyard and my two year old fell in love with it. He speaks the refrain himself. The book has a great rhythm that is fun to read for adults too. My son wants us to recite it from memory when the book is not around. We simply had to buy it when we got home.

Terrific new kids book

Great rhyming text and fabulous illustrations. Toddlers (and parents) can identify with the story and pictures. You can read it the requisite ten thousand times and not want to die. Excellent addition to the bedtime library.
