A good St. Patrick's storytime book, but nothing really exceptional - too short to be much else.

Another prefect book for storytime

[Ashley · Rating 1 out of 5]

I read this book before bed to my daughter because a) we enjoyed a couple of this author's book before and b) I like reading holiday themed book to get myself and my daughter excited about the up coming holiday. I always check out books at the library before buying them. The story didn't hold her attention which made me not enjoy this book.

Yeah, what the world of children's literature was desperately missing was a countdown book for St. Patrick's day. Is there anyone who believes this is anything other than a marketing gambit?

Short with bright illustrations, perfect for including baby in the festivities.

The shamrock cut out pages are easy and fun for little hands to grasp.
