Product Description: It’s nap time on the farm, but one un-sleepy baby has a different plan... Will Baby do the cha-cha? Will Mama flip her wig? Will Baby dance the polka with a polka-dotted pig? Perfect fun for young children who like lively stories, this happy tale invites all to join in and dance along. Read, sing, lift the flaps, do a little jig-and-twirl! It’s a toe-tappin’, no-nappin’ good time when baby starts to boogie.
One of Our Favorites I'm a children's librarian, so I come across a lot of books and very few stand up to many readings. This book is one of them. It's fun for the parents to read aloud, with a rolicking beat and humorous story. We've owned this book since my son's first birthday. He loved it then and at eighteen months, it is still one of his favorites. The illustrations are simple and pleasing with enough detail to invite a closer examination. I highly recommend it!
Wonderful rhyme and rhythm appeal to toddlers and preschoolers This book has been taped and retaped over the past couple of years because my kids (now 5 and 3) have loved it so much. The rhythm allows for a sing-songy kind of reading that is delightful for me and for my kids -- unlike other stories that they want to have repeated over and over again, I never hesitate to read this one to them. The reveal/flap lift with the rhyming word is also especially fun!
wonderful This book is fantastic. I first heard it at a library "lapsit", and bought it for my daughter, when she was only 7 months old. She is 1 now, and still adores it. I get it for all the baby showers I go to. Highly recommended!
Wonderful book! A must have for little ones! This book is truly wonderful. We had borrowed this book from the library and even extended the renewal time frame twice (the max!) When we finally had to return the book, we decided that we had to purchase this book, so we did - we even bought a copy for a good friend of ours! This book has a very catchy rhyme - very cute and our little girl loves the pictures (as well as the rhyme). We started reading her this book when she was about 4 months old and she is almost 8 months old today and still loves the book. i highly recommend this book to anyone with infants!
Best children's book ever!!! My 15-month old has loved this book since she was about 6 months old! I reccomend for every child! I'm so tired of reading this book.... ;)
