This is a fun interactive book with Helen Oxenbury's great illustrations. As you read, act the book out with exaggerated movements. Slap hands on thighs to represent walking. Swishy swashing - brush hands together. Splash splosh - pretend to swim. Squelch squerch - pretend your feet are stuck in the mud as you make the squishy sounds. Stumble trip - stumble while walking. Hooo wooo - pretend the snow is falling. Tiptoe tiptoe - tiptoe in an exaggerated way. This title helps kids become storytellers.

It taught me lessons about life such as being happy with what I have or you might not be happy with what you thought wanted. There was a dog with a steak looking at his reflection and wanted a bigger steak and wind up losing it when it fell in the water.

This is a triumphant journey by an oblivious chicken. The fox, who is never mentioned in the text, finds all kinds of unexpected hazards in his way as he attempts to catch Rosie, and yet Rosie never realizes the danger she is in, or the lucky events that keep her safe. Children will find a satisfying challenge predicting what's next in this story.

This is a classic in children's literature. Corduroy was a small stuffed bear with green overalls who sat on the toy shelf of a large department store. He wished more than anything for a child to take him home. One day a little girl spotted him on the shelf and knew that Corduroy had to be her bear even though he was missing a button. That night Corduroy goes throughout the department store searching for his lost button. He is found by the night watchman who puts him back where he belongs on the toy shelf. The next day the little girl returns and takes Corduroy home where he discovers what a real home is like.

Friendly, colorful illustrations accompany the words of Stevenson's classic poem for kids. Have fun looking for details on each page, or just relax and listen to the rhythm of the words. A lovely version of a poem everyone will enjoy.
