Customer Reviews

A quintet of creative,colorful, musical children.

My children and I have checked Five Live Bongos out of the library at least a dozen times in the past two years. The frazzled parents are true to life - and yet encourage the creative energy of their brood. The kids get along great - a wonderful example in a world so full of conflict. They work hard to have fun, which is the most important work of childhood. The rhythmic text and colorful artrwork delight my three year old and he practically gets up to dance when we read the book. He keeps asking me to buy it. I was very disappointed to find that it is out of print so soon. Overall, it is a great book for kids ages two to ten.
