Customer Reviews

Carry Me! Talk to Me! Sing to Me!

"Carry Me!" is another cute Rosemary Wells book featuring three sweet, simple songs. Each one is pleasing and comforting and will easily be enjoyed by fans of this author and her books. The first one, as you might guess, is "Carry Me!" 'Hold me when you get dressed for town ... Carry me over to hear the bees.' The song works nicely and has lots of fun actions to go along with it. Next is "Talk to Me!" 'Open the window to hear the train / Close the window against the rain.' This is a very action-oriented rhyme. Finally, "Sing to Me!" brings it all full-circle. 'Sing me a summer song / I'll dance you right along' and so on. The gentle illustrations of rabbits are once more a winner. "Carry Me!" is another Rosemary Wells story to treasure.

charming as a penny

Wells' illustrations never fail to make me smile, but the little rhymes and whimsy of the three "chapters" in this book (Carry me, Talk to me, Sing to me) were an instant hit when we brought it home from the library. It's become a favorite and we had to buy our own. Even though the book publisher feels this is appropriate for 1 to 4 years old, it's a good early reader too.
