 a current favorite, August 03, 2010

This book was sent to us as a hand-me-down not long after our twin girls were born and they are now about 3 1/4 years old. We read it to them occasionally over the last couple of years, but currently, this book is a favorite with one of the girls. She asks for it to be read to her all the time now, and when we went on holiday this summer it was one she insisted on bringing with. The illustrations are of course fabulous as is anything by Mercer Mayer, and the text is so well written, the rhyming is fantastic and the cadence of the test is perfect. I am sure this will be a great one for when they start reading themselves. A definite recommend if you come across one.

My favorite pirate book, and we have most of them, I ordered 5 more to give as gifts, Easy to read, and absolutely darling pictures. Story line keeps us all amused. I changed the work, "hate " on the last page to dislike, since I would rather say dislike around my five year old.

They LOVED it!, May 29, 2000

I just stumbled upon this book and my 4 year old and 1 year old just loved it. It has a great story about a benign pirate who loses his gold tooth to a sea beast and then must search undersea to find it again. The illustrations are great. Best of all, it is a Step Up To Reading book. We read it to our 4 year old and the verse is constructed so that he can finish the sentences all by himself. It is his first real "participation" book, but it is not just exclusively for older preschoolers, as our 1 year old is equally interested in it as well. We really are pleased with this book and are looking for more just like it.
