Customer Reviews

This toddler adores this story

My 2.5-year-old daughter has asked to read this book numerous times a day for several weeks now, and shows no sign of losing interest in the story and the vibrant, glowing pictures. I think she relishes the symmetry of problem-leading-to-solution, and most likely is reassured by the theme of adults always coming through with a creative answer to unexpected events or sibling discord. She likes to chant the chorus at the beginning and end of the book. She tells me which are her favorite pictures and seems to feel a part of this creatively problem-solving fictional family. A big success.

Easy-to-read, original lyrics about responding to dilemmas

Charmingly written and superbly illustrated by Kaethe Zemach, The Question Song is a rhyming, full-color picturebook about finding solutions to everyday problems. The easy-to-read, original lyrics about responding to dilemmas make The Question Song a very highly recommended read-aloud book to share with young children ages 3 to 6. "Look at this room! Oh, what a mess! What are we going to do? / We'll pick up the toys and / put them away. Then we'll have more / room to play."
