Fun to improvise

I thought this book was ok when I first read it to my son (borrowed from the library) But each time I read it again to him I improvised more and more, and played with the noises and voices I used, pausing quietly when the baboon comes... My son became mesmerized, and I was laughing at myself. So, yeah, its a great book...

captivating and fun

the colors were brilliant and each page was more vivd than the one before. the enticing world of the colors made you want to pick up the book. i read it and instantly fell in love with the story as well. i cant wait to get the book and share it with my children and their school... good luck to the author/illustrator...an amazingly talented childrens writer...how refreshing !!
