This is such a good book - Rated
I first heard this story when my friend read it to her Son over and over again whilst we were on holiday together. I actually enjoyed listening to the story though and I never got bored of hearing it. The book rhymes really well and it even made me laugh. I have now bought this book for my son and I am sure he will love it.
Brilliant for younger children - Rated
My two boys aged 2 1/2 absolutely adore this book. They are slowly learning it by heart! The rimes are perfect and the book is not too long so that young children don't loose interest. This books goes over the names of different animals and parts of their bodies - fantastic!
Monkey Puzzle or just BAD DREAMS! - Rated
I can only agree with the previous reviews - except - my son don't!!!! He loves all the other stories by the same author and illustrator but this one - i think it is something to do with the first line ' i have lost my mummy'. Since reading this story the first time and not linking the bad dreams to the book but to a house move i read it again recently to him and what a month of sleep deprevation we have all had! if your child is at all sensitive or thinks beyond the obvious read with care. As for me - i love it! all the best.
Agree with everyone else - Rated
This book is great. My little one is nearly 15 months and already loves the book so much he fills in the names of some of the animals as we read it ("No no no, that's a .. "). Plenty of opportunities for animal noises and actions making it great fun to read.
We also love the Gruffalo (a bedtime classic), and A Squash & A Squeeze - by the same authors. The formula in all thier books of rhyming + repetition is spot on, and I can see why toddlers are captivated by their books.
Thought this was one of the "lesser" ones... - Rated
... and I was very wrong. The story may be simple (anybody else read about Bobo, a monkey looking for his mummy? Sound familiar?), but honestly - the pattern and rhyme in this book are absolute top-notch, and the illustrations superb (my 4 yr old pointed out things on the page to me I hadn't noticed). Let's give credit where credit is due - Julia Donaldson has provided a bed-time story that both parent and child will smile about, and not forget after the last page has turned and the lights are out. I am sure that per copy of this book, two fans are born - in both parent and child.
