Great emotion in children's rhyme

I love this book b/c it's a fun rhyme that I can get into character with for my girls (ages 4 and 1 1/2)that has a great moral. And my four year old can really understand the impact when I read it to her.

My Little One Loves This Book

This puts the lesson of being a good listerner on a 2 or 3 year olds level. It explains to the children that God wants you to listen to friends and family and that you do need the help of others making your way through life.

Read it before, now I'm writing about it!

This book so far is the best! I've read it since 2003 and still, Big Idea has never been this fun before! Since Larry was so excited about playing the game, he didn't listen to his friends and claims he knows how. Wrong! The game goes "KER-POW!" My main thing about the "KER-POW!" sound is that the very young kids might shout it out as their first word, so be prepared! Anyway, he finally listens to his friends when Joe helps him out on lining up the batteries the same. So Larry did, and the game started up again and from now on, he listens to them. God wants us all to listen to friends and family, so we don't miss what they have to say! I recommend this book for anyone with even the littlest kids! Sharilyn Mutulo Age: 15
