Creative and cute

Who would have thought to write a book about waking up to find your belly button missing? My four-year old was immediately drawn to both the title and the content. We checked this book out from the library several times, until one day, we discovered its been withdrawn, and is now out-of -print! So we bought it!

4 Year Old Loves It

My daughter is 4 and loves this book. We keep getting it at the library and will have to buy it for her. She loves to find the belly buttons on the animals (some are a challenge). When the boy's belly button suddenly gets returned, she asks how it got there, then informs me that he had surgery. The pictures are great and it is fun to read.

The Boy Who Lost His Belly Button

This was one of the best childrens books that I have read in quite a while. The illustrations were well done and the wording was done in a fashion that younger children were able to follow quite closely, which some books fail to do. I work at a library and the children that I read it to were quite taken with it.
