How to Catch an Elephant

Rating:
Summary: A great romp for the imaginative
Review: Catching an elephant is easy, if you have the right attitude. This is a great, silly story, with just the right amount of goofiness and the right amount of deadpan to leave kids giggling on the floor. Have some raisins and a telescope handy, because they'll probably want to try it for themselves!

Summary: Great for storytimes!
Review: I am a children's librarian at a small public library, and I used this book during my "silly stories" week. The repetitive structure and clear, colorful illustrations make this a good one for sharing with a group.

Summary: A great book to read
Review: Its a great action book to read to toddlers. You can could get them to be fully involved in the plot of the book. My four year old could not stop laughing the first time I read him this book. He thoroughly enjoyed it.

Summary: What? No more raisins?
Review: This book is such fun to read with children as young as 3 years old. The repetitive nature of the story encourages participation of the young listener. The joy of the story is it's funny and ludicrous. I hope that this writer keeps on keeping on!
