I really enjoyed reading this book with my daughter. The actions and repetition made it fun and interactive, and I liked how it encouraged her to be involved while I was reading. The predictable language makes it particularly suitable for reading aloud and gives young children opportunities to join in. I think this would be a great book to share with young children to encourage movement, imagination and enjoyment of stories.
