Summary: Union Organizing for Preschoolers!
Review: I love this book. It's hilarious, it's simple, and it's political. What a fantastic concept. Both of my girls love it (they're 6 and 9 yrs old) and it's a fantastic way to segue into a discussion of labor injustice. Amazing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Click Clack Moo - solidarity for all ages
Review: This is a wonderfully written book with great illustrations. I saw the review and wanted to get it for my union local's library. Everyone who's read it (so far, no one under the age of 30) thinks it's great - funny, witty, and frank! A clear explanation about the power of solidarity! A must read for all ages. Here's my guilty confession: it's fun to read out loud. I found that out by reading it to my husband!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Click Clack Moo-It's what's for reading.
Review: This book says it all. With humorous politcs in mind, Farmer Brown experiences the disadvantages to having a herd of cows who can not only type, but who practice collective bargaining too. Wonderful illustrations with expressions that capture the humor of the whole situation. Adults will enjoy this just as much as children.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Cows That Type---and Make You Squeal with Laughter
Review: This is one of those wonderful ventures where the marriage of story and pictures is perfect. The wacky, sophisticated humor is terrifically appealing, and the story delivers a gentle message about fairness and the power of words. The watercolor wash drawings have a lovely, fresh messiness that really make the book a visual treat. And the brief story is sweetly charming without ever becoming kiddie-cute.

I'm a visual artist by trade and I loved this book because it made me laugh. A lot.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Click, Clack, Moovelous
Review: Life is a compromise. In order to get ahead, one must be prepared to give a little. Click, Clack, Moo not only successfully illustrates that very notion, but does so in a very amusing yet endearing manner. This book must be included in our bedtime reading. Both of my daughters, ages one and three, "moo" along the story. My girls love this book. (I love anything that makes them happy.) I have read it to them countless times and each time their reaction is filled with the same enthusiasm as it was at the first reading.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great book!
Review: First, I should confess... I'm 34 years old, childless, and working on my second masters degree. In other words, I wasn't the author's target audience. That said... The text is fun and the pictures are outstanding! I'm buying copies for all my friends' kids (plus one for me!).

P.S. If you want to hear a wonderful reading of the book go to www.npr.org and search by "cow that type"... you can listen to Scott Simon and Daniel Pinkwater do a great reading of the book. But then get the book since the pictures make it that much more wonderful.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: first-rate read-aloud
Review: I heard "CLICK CLACK MOO" read aloud on National Public Radio and knew I had to have this book. Educational (the art of negotiation!), entertaining (animal sounds the young ones will enjoy)and clever, this one is a cross between Dr. Seuss and Gary Larsen's Far Side. Well written with hilarious illustrations. Don't pass this one by.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I hope for more of the Cows from Ms. Cronin soon!
Review: This book was wonderful... it skillfully and entertainingly conveys real world concepts in a children's tale that is at once contemporary and timeless. Plus, I Love the Cows and their big friendly faces!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: kudo for moo
Review: This was given to our new granddaughter; her lawyer father liked the story line and the illustrations drew a grin from the new mother. This is a cute book to add to her hand-me-down classics.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thumbs up for the cows
Review: Obviously written by a skilled negotiator, this story of manipulative and intelligent animals is clever and fun to read. The writer has a wonderful ability to add humor and irony to a book designed for children. (Although as an adult, I loved it too!) The illustrations are beautiful as well. I highly recommend this book
