Product Description

Product Description
Moo moo! Hoo hoo! Cock-a-doodle-doo! Oh, the wonderful sounds Mr. Brown can do. Now see if you can do them too! This fabulous book is ideal for teaching young children all about noises! Available for the first time as a picture book and CD With his inimitable combination of hilarious stories, zany pictures and riotous rhymes, Dr. Seuss has been delighting young children and helping them learn to read for over fifty years. Creator of the wonderfully anarchic Cat in the Hat, and ranked among the UK's top ten favourite children's authors, Seuss is firmly established as a global best-seller, with nearly half a billion books sold worldwide.

About the Author
Theodor Seuss Geisel -- better known to millions of his fans as Dr. Seuss -- was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children's books, and his first book -- And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street -- was published in 1937. His greatest claim to fame was the one and only The Cat in the Hat, published in 1957, the first of a hugely successful range of early learning books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing fun, 23 Oct 2003
By Sonya Myles - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We love this book! Some of my son's earliest speech was associated with the various sounds that Mr Brown made, and as it turns out, we could too! A great book that will entertain for years!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dr. Seuss inspires parents and kids to make wonderful noises, 21 April 2004
By A Customer
In the old days it was Old MacDonald who had a farm and on this farm hehad a cow, duck, and all sorts of other animals, each of which made aparticular sound that can be imitated. But then along game Mr. Brown, acreation of Dr. Seuss, who makes Old MacDonald look like the strong silenttype. That is because as we learn in "Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You?: Dr.Seuss's Book of Wonderful Noises," Mr. Brown can do more than "moo" like acow, "buzz" like a bee, and go "hoo hoo hoo hoo" like an owl. Mr. Browncan go "pop" like a cork, "eek eek" like a squeaky shoe, and even make thesound of a hippopotamus chewing gum.
I think one of the reasons this is a popular book with beginning readersis not only because kids enjoy making all these noises, but also becauseparents and other adults get to embarrass themselves in making the soundson these pages come alive (or a reasonable facsimile thereof). Trying tomake the sound of the rain or a big cat drinking is not too hard, butdoing a very hard noise to make like the sound of lighting (which is a"splatt" apparently) or a noise like a goldfish kiss ("pip") might bepushing the envelope too much.
Of course, you can make up any sound you want when you are reading this tovery young children. But you have to keep in mind that the whole point ofthese Bright and Early Books for Beginning Beginners is to inspire them toread on their own one day, which means you can look forward to beingconfronted by an indignant young child demanding to know how the noise youmade every time you read them the book has anything to do with what ishighlighted on these pages. So be forewarned, that sooner or later youare going to be embarrassed reading this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars My babys' favourite book - he loves the funny sounds!, 29 Sep 2005
By minnie_cooper (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This was the first book to really captivate my son, at the tender age of 6 months! He loves the sounds in the book - the "buzz buzz" made him giggle the first time he heard it - and the sing-song rhythm of the rhyme keeps him totally tuned in (no mean feat making a baby concentrate) every time I read it to him. It's short length is perfect, and importantly I never tire of reading it either!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dr Brown can moo
For a start, it's hard to tear off a page from a board book. We had this book 6 months ago and it has been a favorite to our 22month old triplets. Very fun and lively book. Read more
