Book Review: great and entertaining Summary: 5 StarsIt's fun to make the sounds listed in the books and get your child to join in.
Book Review: Great For All, Especially For Dads and Grandads. Summary: 5 StarsLet's be honest. If an alien were to land and ask how to tell the difference between fathers and mothers, telling it that "The fathers are the ones making the sound effects" would be a good rule of thumb. Dr. Seuss's "Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?" is a book length excuse to make funny noises with your kid.
The rhymes are as good as one would expect of Seuss, and the flow of the verse is smooth and catchy. What sets this apart, though, are the wonderful noises. Roosters cock-a-doodle-doo, bees buzz, and eggs sizzle. Shoes squeak, clocks tick, and goldfish kiss. The rhymes build one upon the other, and by the end, the reader is left with a stream of sounds that is a challenge to get out in one breath. This was a bedtime favorite for years at our house.
In addition to being fun to read, the book is a wonderful way for pre-readers to participate. The sound effects are simple enough for a young mouth to form, and you can't really get a "blurp blurp" wrong. The text leading up to the sounds always offers just enough of a prompt for even a very young child to know what comes next. I'm convinced that showing kids how fun books like this can be helps prime them to want be readers in their own right.
So get this one for a new father or grandfather. You won't be giving paper and ink, but priceless memories.
5 stars
