Customer Reviews

It's just how you do it.

At first glance I was not very impressed with this but I gave it a chance. My three-year-old twin girls kept asking for it--every night. Yes, one reviewer said the rhyme scheme seems forced. You can't let yourself force it to fit; an equal number of syllables in each sentence is really not necessary for good rhyming. You just have to work it. The illustrations are very cohesive to my girls' taste (Pixar-ish)and the colors are VIBrant! My library book is due back in a week and I HAVE to buy this one...

Hide Clyde!

This is a really cute book about a chameleon for young children. It has rhyme and is fun and irresistable! I think it is great fun.
