Customer Reviews

We love this book!

After renewing this book twice from the library we are obliged to return it. So I am here to buy it. My 3 yr old son and I don't get tired of the twisty turny repetitions in this book which have a marvelous read-aloud beat. The vocabulary is excellent. The pacing of the book is fantastic, and it lends itself to reading with great drama and emotion: drenched animals, fright, relief, compassion, pity, laugher, hope, surprise... and the illustrations are spot on. Engaging, expressive, funny, touching. Highly recommended, especially with hot soup on a rainy day!

Excellent

My 3-year old daughter loves this book. It's perfectly repetitive, and it's a great message. A great gift.

Delightful!

My 2-year-old daughter would listen to this book a dozen times a day, and it's likewise MY favorite book to read aloud. A few weeks ago, I put it away to give it a rest. When I pulled the book out yesterday and started to read it, she gave it a hug and said "I love this book!"

Fun & Charming

This is a great rhyming book for children, and I found it very fun to read to my son at bedtime. The language is silly, but it has a delightful cadence and rhythm. The illustrations are big and dynamic, with lots of interesting detail. I highly recommend this book for bedtime, or just reading time; its great.

Wonderful Book

This is a wonderful book. It is a joy to read over and over. The illustrations are marvelous. I have bought this for many friends.
