Cute idea
My 27-month old daughter loves this book. Sometimes she needs help opening the bag containing the letter magnets, but she will sit for quite a while independently trying to match the letters with their pictures in the book. Or we can read the story and work together with the magnets. The page following the story with the alphabet listed is also helpful in getting her to recognize the letters as ...

Another great book in the series. This one has a great message about protecting the animals children grow to love while reading Erin Carle.

The boy lived, but lives in darkness. He begs for a promise that his Grandfather will always be ...

Bill Martin Jr. and Michael Sampson have taken the pledge apart, and explained each word (pledge: A pledge is a promise), or phrase (one nation: Our states and territories have bonded together to form one nation.

Darling story of what most parents experience daily as they try to wake up their children and get them ready for school...
This adorable story traces a mother and child as they move from waking up, to getting dressed, to eating breakfast, and to leaving for school, with other adventures mixed in along the way. The star is a little mouse who participates in the fun!

A new baby "basic"
Have to have this book if you have a newborn. Scholastic has a really fun DVD that adds a fun carribean inspired tune to the book too. My children have LOVED this book since they were very young and still respond to it.

Introducing animals and their sounds
I bought this book together with "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" a couple of days ago, and my 3y.o. kid loves them both. My son helps me read out loud and is learning complicated words like "boa constrictor". It's very simple and great for introducing new animals and new words (such as "roaring" or "hissing"), we have a lot of fun reading it together every day.

I started reading this book to my son when he was 12 months old and since then he has always loved reading it. The words are flowy and interesting enough to capture his attention. A definate must have in a toddlers bookshelf!

Even adults never tire of this one!!!
I work in an elementary school with children of all ages and do a ton of babysitting. When I first heard this CD I fell in love with it. Every child that I've introduced to it has also loved it. It's one book/CD even an adult won't get tired of listening to!

Help! They're chasing me!
My daughter checked this book out of the library and made me read it to her over and over again. I didn't see the appeal of this book! But she loved it. So for Fire Safety week with my preschoolers, we read this book. They loved it! My god, they made me read it over and over and over again. They followed me around the room and made me read it. I still don't see the appeal. But kids love this ...

My Kids' Favorite
This book was my daughter's favorite when she was a baby. Now her new little brother has reacted in the same way. Little ones don't often have to patience to sit still while you read every page of a book, but for some reason they find the Maestro so captivating that they request it over and over again. Our little crawler will drag it across the room and plop it in my lap. How can you say ...

We LOVE this book!!
This is a great book to read to antsy kids. My child not only istened, but got very involved with the characters, soon WE were a hippopota-family! Who can resist saying, "Hippopotamama"? The text flows beautifully and the illustrations are playful and just perfect for this tale! If you loved the Happy Hippopotomi, then I wholeheartedly recommend, "The Maestro Plays" also by Bill Martin, Jr.

Trick Or Treat
I read Trick or Treat I thought it was a good book. It was good because it was funny. The kid went trick or treating and he got scared by a person on the tenth floor and everything turns wackbards and everybody tricks him. I recommend this book. This book is for ages 8-11.
Old Devil Wind
Bill Martin Jr
Voyager Books
, 1996
In this cumulative tale that begins on ?one dark and stormy night,? Ghost begins to wail. Then Candle flickers. Floor creaks. Owl hoots. And Wind begins to blow . . . and blow . . . and BLOW. . . . ?The mounting cadence will be splendid aloud; kids will begin to chime in on the first reading. Root?s dark, swirling paintings of the thoroughly haunted house, lit with a ghostly glow, are right in the proper spirit.?-- Kirkus Reviews

Loved it!
My son is 18 months old. I have to read this book 20 times a day. He loves the chant and has memorized most of the book. Excellent source for learning abc's.
