Customer Reviews

My family loves this book!

The Tomato Collection is a surefire winner for storytime with your kids. Honestly, I don't know who enjoys the book more - me or my son! The stories and poems capture the true spirit of kids, from the silly to the serious, in their own language. The original illustrations and photos add a whimsical dimension to the already creative writings. Everytime we read it, we find something new. We liked the book so much that we recently added "the Big album" CD to our collection. The just-released recording puts The Tomato Collection to music in a collection of over 50 songs. My son and I love to dance and sing along with the characters from the book. Plain and simple - this is great fun for kids of all ages.

One Really Cool Book

This book is full of really cute poems and thoughts that Mr. Kammeraad has and has put together into a funny little book. The book has poems that are fun to read and that the whole family likes to read. One of the poems is about a couch that eats people. This is a really neat book and everyone should get a chance to read it

Great buy for the money!!!!!! A book for the entire family

The book says for ages 4 - 8, but we loved it just as much as our daughter!! It's loads of fun and reminded of us of our youth. Our daughter loved the artwork. We have read it over and over and keep finding new stuff each time we read it. Kevin obviously has a bright future ahead of him.

Clever, cool and tons of fun

I sat down to read this book to see if my younger cousins would enjoy it and found myself bursting out loud with laughter. The author did a wonderful job of puting together words and pictures that not only stimulate the mind but the eyes as well. I 100% totally think that this would be a great book for those who are young and young at heart

Refreshing, interactive and creative for kids & adults alike

Kevin draws readers of any age into an interactive exploration through innovative, fresh and creative verse and illustrations. This is a children's book that brings more than rhythm & rhyme- it brings new thoughts and expands horizons in a fun presentation! The homemade characters presented in mixed media bring the fun home!
