Fun book

We liked the original book when our daughter was young, and thought a granddaughter would like it too. The sounds are an added bit of fun. The noises aren't all what I'd think of for the sounds in the book, but she liked them.

Love, love, love this story and the sounds are an added bonus!

This was a book from my childhood and I love reading it to my kids as well. I had to get a new book, as my son read it so much the pages were ripped and worn, for my baby girl. I got this interactive one when I saw it. They read this book with me, and by themselves, almost daily. They sounds are not too bad, but the book is very interactive and captures the imagination. From my 7 year old to my 1 year old, this book is a hit in my house!

Great Engaging Book!

My kids love this story and found a video on YouTube with the author reading it. They must've watched that video a hundred times (not joking). When I found this book with sound on Amazon, I ordered it right away! It's a bedtime story favorite with all my kids. We even do the movements like the author in his video! Great, Engaging Book!

One happy 2 year old

My 2 and half year old loves this story! He loves to watch the video of Michael Rosen reading the book. He has watched that video since before he was 9 months old. He's just recently into books so I decided to order it for him. Man is he happy. We read it about 10 times a day and on the potty!

Big disappointment

Bought one; it didn't work. Bought another one, which didn't work (both books received fresh batteries). Major disappointment. Returning them were not worth the postage, so out of thatoney

Very engaging. Didn't think it was all that awesome until we had to limit how many times we read it per day with 12 month old daughter....

Fun book

Love this story. Adding sounds was a genius idea. The were a couple that sounded very similar which was a little disappointing. Still a fun book.
