My daughter has loved this book since she was about 18-months-old. The prose is wonderful, and the illustrations really serve to hold my daughter's interest -- I point out, or she asks about, all the detail in all the pictures. She's now 2 years 4 months and still loves it, and also loves the other books by Jack Prelutsky that I have subsequently bought her.
Original and fun

I picked this up at our library because it looked interesting. My almost 2y/o is a little too wiggly to sit still for this, but I love the fun and funky poems and beautiful illustrations for each. I may get this for myself and just hope that my son learns to love it too!
Must Have

My six year old just finished reading this lovely book. What a delightful experience with a new genre. The illustrations are amazing. She was tickled to read poems about places where her aunt and uncle live. My daughter is now inspired to create her own poems. It does not get much better than that.

I gave this book to a very bright 3 year old. She fell in love with it and insisted that it be read to her daily. Through this book she will begin the process of learning to read, as well as learning geography. Right on, Prelutsky!
