Customer Reviews

nostalgia

I gave my husband this book for his 60+ birthday recently, and he wept as he read it. This was a library book our children clamored for, back when we couldn't afford to buy many. Every poem recalls a hilarious child moment, or comment. Utterly charming book and, for us, memory laden. If your children are little, buy a copy and build your own memories!

eggs are yucky

Frances, who is obviously a four year-old badger with definite opinions about the way the world should work, sings her odes and laments in this delightful book. Our favorite is Egg Thoughts, none of them good, because Frances HATES eggs. Superceded only by The Goops.
