Customer Reviews

My 2 year old's favortie book!!

I bought her this at a garage sale when she was a little baby, and it's her favorite. It's also the one my mom enjoys reading to her the most, and the story and pictures are adorable! She loves to point things out in the beautiful illustrations. I know there's a new version out, but please give this one a try.

Very funny and detailed illustrations

The song this book is based on is my older son's favorite, so this book was a "must have" for us. We love the book's pictures---they are very comical and detailed---it's hilarious seeing how the cat has taken over poor Mr. Johnson's house. The version of the song in the book is, however, is quite different than I have heard it other places---it's quite toned down. This is not a bad thing, as the version on the tape my son listens to is actually quite gruesome. The book also has much fewer verses, but it does include my son's favorite verse, with the train! This book would be a winner with folk song lovers or cat lovers!

Great! Funny! Attention Grabber for young children

My Grandson age 3 and I checked this book out of the public library. We had so much fun with it that I ordered it and it will be under the Christmas tree for him. When he looks at it, he will remember the fun time we had reading it. The illustrations are good and you must "read" the illustrations as well as the copy in the book.
