This is my 20-month-old's current favorite. What a shame that it has been hiding away in the Easy Reader section of the library so we hadn't found it before. There's a whole world of picture books over there we need to discover because we've only been in the children's section. The book is extremely simple and quick to read. The characters are cute. Our family has had many chain reactions of "blarggie, blarggie" since we first read it.

Presentation is misleading. It really works best for the sticky-fingered rugrat crowd as it is so very simple, and therefore it should be a board book rather than a picture book. Other than that, it does what it sets out to do (help an earliest beginning reader learn and stay motivated and keep mom/caregiver close for the tricky words and laugh every time for many rereadings) and it does it very well.

As the first book my son ever read all by himself, it is always going to be 5 stars for my family.
