Customer Reviews

Great fun, lovely pictures - Rated 5/5
I've been reading this to my daughter since she was a couple of months old and she was always interested in it, but she's recently (at 11 months) started to absolutely love it. The drawings are lovely, with lots of witty detail, and I love the colours - there are too many children's picture books with hideous dark colours and strange angles that make the pictures hard to understand, I think. I love, too, the way Quentin Blake never patronises, and always uses a normal vocabulary in his children's books.


family favourite! - Rated 5/5
very enexpenisive and enjoyable book! i'd recommend it to anyone with young kids, its quick to read and ill keep them quiet!


A brilliant quickie - Rated 5/5
If you're looking for a speedy read for that "extra" bedtime story this is it. The poetry is sparse but witty, quirky and truly memorable. Indeed I leave out the last line of each page for my 3 year old to fill in the missing word. It is suitably surreal to keep my attention and entertain my son. I do not groan when he chooses this book at bedtime.


A quirky nonsense poem with great illustrations. - Rated 5/5
My 5-year-old daughter really enjoyed this storybook. The rhythm of the verse is energetic and and the story is humorous and entertaining. Kids will love the colour illustrations.


Great book for reading aloud with young children - Rated 5/5
A great family favourite. This is a classic picture book for reading aloud with young children. The text is a poem, in each verse Mr Magnolia has a marvellous possesion - eg two lovely sisters who play on the flute - but only one boot. The boot reference repeats, so the chldren can shout along, until a very happy ending is reached. The illustrations are excellent, bright, at first glance simple but on closer examination there is lots of fun detail for the children to pick out. The style of the illustrations will be familiar to any Roald Dahl fans as Quentin Blake illustrated Dahls books. It is similar in many ways to the Dr Seuss books, the rhyme, repetition and silliness, but would suit slightly younger children. The finest praise - my children at 14 and 11 thought they had outgrown picture books, we are giving this to young cousins for Christmas, but only after my children have re-read it first!
