I like it. I liked seeing the baby on his highchair with one shoe on and one shoe off. It made me laugh. And I liked it when the baby was sitting on his big sister's knee.

A great story for young children to have a little insight into the past. Although really good for very young children with its use of peepo and repeated phrases, it is great for questions and discussions about the past. Lovely rhyming.
