My preschooler loves the "George" books!

Bought this along with the game of a similar name for my 3.5 year old granddaughter. She loved the book so much I ordered all the" George" books in this series. The illustrations are bright with lots of interesting details to discover and talk about. Great rhyming.

Who Doesn't Like Spaghetti?

Who doesn't like spaghetti. George's bedroom is filled with posters, clothes, and abominable books about the Yeti. He wants to believe. He decides to find the beast and serve a feast. As he explores he meets plenty of monsters but no Yeti. He meets Betty, but not a Yeti. He meet Hetty, but now Yeti. From these other monsters and Netty, he learns that a Yeti like to crunch and crack things. You will enjoy the rhymes and use of language. Perhaps in the end George will meet a Yeti?

Riveting read

I read this book cover to cover in less than 5 minutes...it was THAT good. I couldn't put it down. I cannot wait for the sequal Yowie gets an Owie!! (Mr Guillain if you do write that...I get a cut right?)

Fun read-aloud!

This is a cute book! My kids (boy 4 and girl 8) both enjoy it. The rhyming text is a hit and I love doing different voices for the characters the boy meets a long the way. Great read-aloud! Pair this with the Yeti in My Spaghetti game and you have a great little gift!

Good companion to the game.

This was given to my 3 year-old grandson to go with his 'Yeti in my spaghetti' game. Both were quite a hit; a good combination.

Book damaged but great story

The story was adorable but there is something physically wrong with the book. I bought this for my granddaughter for Christmas. As soon as we opened the book the middle two pages fell out and the next two were barely hanging in! I will be returning it to request a replacement.
