Review: As a favorite book of a friend, we received this book as a gift. "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" starts off well with nice rhymes and good rhythm, but deteriorates into little more than the reciting of the last half of the alphabet, which was very disappointing. I would skip this one.

Review: A fun way to teach the alphabet... This book had great rhythm and colorful illustrations along with silly letters that can't seem to get it right! A cute book.

Summary: Oh, Those Pesky Alphabet Letters!
Review: A told B and B told C...And so begins this delightful, rhythmic cadence as we follow the naughty alphabet letters up and down a coconut tree! This book is so much fun, and so perfect for very young children. As the letters chase each other up and down the tree, the inevitable happens...they all fall down! And then what happens? They start all over again. Your kids will delight, as mine did, in the rapid pace, rhythmic wording (you just can't help swaying along with the words) and bright, bold, simple illustrations. And you will rejoice that they know their alphabet in no time flat. A wonderful, wonderful book, timeless and fun.

Summary: Absolutely Adorable
Review: My 2.5 year old can finish most pages on her own. She also has learned her alphabet so well - she can point and tell me a half dozen of the letters already! The concept is just wonderful. I definitely recommend this to everyone with children!!

Review: The colorful illustrations and rhyming words catch the children's attention and keep them interested. The repetition of the words allows them to learn the lines and "read" along with me. This is an excellent book for preschoolers.

Summary: My son loves this!
Review: My son is 4 with an autistic spectrum disorder. This is a great story introduced to him at school by his teachers and therapists. The rhythm of the book is engaging for even harder to reach children like my son... a fun story to both hear and read!

Summary: GREAT book!!
Review: My son received this book as a present on a Saturday night. By Tuesday he was already helping me recite the book. I read it that much. He is 20 months old and really enjoys this story. It is one he will sit through over and over again. I would highly recommend this book. The rhymes really captivate the children and the simple pictures help to keep their interest.

Review: Living in a book filled with books and kids is heaven. We read aloud every day here in our house, and letter books have been favorites for years and years when the kids start learning to read. We live in Norway and speak Norwegian, so most of our children's books are also in Norwegian. Still, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom is among the favorites. The text, by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault is so simple and still so filled with rhymes and humour. And Lois Ehlart's colorful illustrations go perfect with the words.Learning the letters and learning to read can be a hard task for a child, and the book captures this perfectly. The letters live their own lives, climbing up the coconut tree, falling down again, bending, looping, having fun.......exactly what letters do when you are a newbie and try to sort them out. Any child will laugh of the way the letters act, and the sometimes hard task of learning the letters will be a wonderful game the child wants to play over and over again We love this book in our house, and can recommens it to any young readers.

Summary: Chicka Chicka Boom Boom
Review: This is hands down the best book for children age 3 and under that I have ever encountered (and we have over 1,000 children's books in our home!). I began reading it to my oldest child when she was 2 months old, and by 16 months, she could recite the alphabet AND identify all 26 letters of the alphabet-- upper AND lower case! I give most of the credit to this wonderful book (but keep in mind, we read it EVERYDAY, often times, several times a day!) My youngest child picks this book out of the shelf first and foremost. He is only 13 months old, but he absolutely loves this book and prefers it over most toys. Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault have more than a classic here, not to mention the great illustrations by Lois Ehlert. If you're looking for the perfect book to teach your children the alphabet or you just simply want an entertaining book that is sure to be a hit, look no further. This is it!
