Best ever birthday present

At some point in every kid's life, someone should give this book as a present. The artwork is exquisite -- and charming -- and funny -- and well dressed too!!! The text is poetry that flows as easily as one of those jingles you can't get out of your head. It's an equally great book for any adult with a sense of whimsey.

birthday abc is back!

o.k ok. so I'm Predjudiced, but the book is great and I have put my money where my mouth is and republished it myself in a new deluxe edition which can be secured from me at traglin@horizon.hit.net. Thank you!!!

love it, love it, love it!

Hi! The illustrations are just to die for, the text is witty and how about that vulture with little culture? Wonderful. I spend a lot of time thinking of who I know who has a birthday so I can give them a copy. No kidding.

hilarious birthday rhyme book for kids

Very funny and the best illustrations ever. Clever enough for parents not to hate if they read it three times a night for three years. Really wonderful.
