Customer Reviews

Love this book!!!!!

My 2 1/2 year old grandson spotted this book at the library, as he had heard it at daycare. We both love it! The music is infectious, easy for a 2 year old to sing along. The simple story and art, adding animals to the farmer's cart is charming.

This book has a huge impact for kids!

I didn't know that one of the authors of this book was a composer and a specialist in music education for kids, and this explains why my 2.5-year-old nephew suddenly started singing along with the CD (included), even though he hasn't quite even started speaking apart from a few words, and his mother tongue is not even English! It was a really sweet moment when he started to try to sing along with the songs, and he looked really happy - that was when I realised that I got the right book for him! The drawings in the book are very colourful and pleasant too, and my nephew really liked the whole thing. This is a good package, and I can recommend it to all parents, grand parents, uncles and aunts if they are looking for a good & colourful picture book with music for small children! Hope this helps!

Wonderful book with catchy and fun song

The book is wonderfully illustrated and has a perfect song for a toddler. Our son sings this song non-stop 24/7! And we still love the song too, very catchy and entertaining.
