Part of our library's '100 books Every Kid Should Hear Before Kindergarten' list. We read all the books with our grandson this summer in preparation for school. This title is in my top 20 from the project.

Between the mischievously cute illustrations and the simple parental pleadings, this is a must read baby book.

Not my favorite. This was repetitive in a way that I seemed to stumble over rather than being able to flow effortlessly. I think there were 20 total words used over in the book which would be great for a beginning reader but was not amusing to my boys to be read to. The illustrations were very cute and my boys laughed at baby's crazy antics.

I liked the illustrations in this book, but I actually found it irritating the repetition part was always a little different and didn't seem to follow a pattern. I feel like it was trying to be cheeky about the child's behavior but it didn't pull it off for me.
