Customer Reviews

Fun book!

This is a great book! It's got fun rhymes about all different kinds of sports and games. I would recommend it for kids that are 4 or 5 and older, though -- my 3 year old has a hard time focusing on the art and following the rhymes. I'm sure he'll love it when he's a bit older, though.
