Worms Wiggle

by David Pelham

At the 1908 Summer Olympics, one of the contenders in the marathon was the diminutive Italian Dorando Pietri. After leading the pack at a grueling pace, Pietri staggered into the stadium, turned the wrong direction, and fell five times, after which two officials took him by the arms and brought him across the finish line.

A wonderful book for little ones!!

I had this book for my oldest granddaughter (soon to be 11 years old) when she was very little. It was her favorite book & she would have me read this to her over & over. The pop-ups were fun. I remember she would have me turn past the lion because she would say..oooh scary. We ended up playing a game with the book. She would "get ready" for the lion & she remembers her & me reading that book together to this day. She scored the highest in her school last year with reading & is an honor stutdent. I know that reading together with her when she was small helped bring her where she is today. I am going to get this for my youngest granddaughter, her little sister Hannah who is 18 months old. She loves to look at books & have you read to her. Caitlyn (my oldest granddaughter) and I both agree she would love this book so I am going to get a copy for her and make more fond memories with Hannah. This is a book that when your little one still may tear a book, you need to read with them because the pop-ups could be torn out but its more fun to read this book with them anyway. Read with your little one, make fond memories & help them advance their ability to read all at once. What a worthwhile investment!

A fantastic witty book for young children

This book is great, the rhymes, the illustrations, the whole book is fantastic, I love it

This book is perfect for all ages!

This is such a nice, simple book with very clever pop-ups that really work after many readings. My son, who is not quite three, loves to read this book to me. It has definitey been one of our favorites.
