Customer Reviews

A great "first book"!

This book, along with others in Oxenbury's Tom and Pippo series, was one of the first stories my son (now 2) would sit still for, and they continue to be counted among his favorites. They are short enough for toddler attention spans, the illustrations are interesting to reader and child alike, and the stories are wonderful.

A Classic Tom and Pippo

As expected, Oxenbury again finds a sweet, simplistic way to reenforce the everyday life lessons that parents teach their toddlers. This time it's about going out on a cold day for a walk. Lively illustrated, the story is short and direct. Perfect length for those short attention spans.
