5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic book for young children, 8 May 2009
By L. Turner "Yumi_mumi" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My 4 year old son borrowed this book from the library last week and he absolutely loves it so I've decided to buy it for him. Its a fun book to read to him before bedtime with upbeat rhymes and bright pictures that will easily entertain young children and parents.
