This would be a very fun book to be read aloud. Maybe to a lot of kids. Maybe they could take parts. Fun illustrations, too!

one of my favorites!

I happened upon this fabulous book in a local indie bookstore when my daughter, who is now 23, was very young. It quickly became one of her favorites to listen to, and one of my favorites to read. (In fact, I can still recite the first several pages for you any time you're interested.) The illustrations are silly and fun and the story is goofy and endearing. I highly, highly recommend it to all parents and kids.

When I was in elementary school the author came and did a book reading followed by a book signing. This was one of the books he read and was by far my very favorite. It's a silly, rhyming story that's fun to read aloud to kids and has some truly fantastic art that fills the entire page. I can't read this without smiling and I'm pretty certain there isn't a single person who could.

OK - now I promise I'll stop adding children's books (for now at least). but you really need to read this one if you haven't.

not sure what to think about this one...maybe I need a pat on the head.

"Head pats." They said, "We want pats on our head." I LOVE this book. Probably out of print by now but fortunately I have my own copy and this story WILL be inflicted on my darling grandson! ;-)

I was entertained and delighted, and then I encountered the plot twist and became downright enamored.

This is one of my all-time favorite picture books for children. The verse jumps off the pages as you read it aloud. I love the rhyme, and children love it, too!

Funniest book with the most charming and whimsical illustrations. Our family loved this book!
