This Raffi "Songs to Read" book is my toddlers favorite book, hands down. We originally borrowed a copy from our local library and he became attached to the book (we had to read it over and over and over again), so we purchased our own copy.At first he simply loved that my husband and I sang the book to him. But as we read it more and more he learned what verses go where and started to do hand motions or sounds for them on his own. Reading the book is now a totally interactive activity. We ask him what comes next, and he responds. So we have a lot of fun family time with this book. And I highly recommend adding this book to your library.Plus, I think overall it is a fun change of pace to sing a book to a child rather than just reading it.

    We got this book for our son; originally, from the local library... we had to get it out several times, as it quickly became his favorite. Eventually, we bought it to add to our collection.

    The book brings the simple interactive song, The Wheels on the Bus" to life as each verse is wonderfully illustrated with artwork that captures a child's attention and provides LOTS of visual stimulation and teaching points. Vibrant colors, interesting people and actions make the beautifully simple song something you can sit down with your child and read over and over, pointing out new things...

    We read the book, sing with the book, make the hand movements/gestures, go into detail about the vignettes presented in the back-story, use our imagination, object, action and color recognition, it's a great way to connect educationally and in a simple, entertaining way.

    This book is up there with "Green Eggs and Ham" "You Are Special" "Guess How Much I Love You" and "Go Dog Go" as a key component of any young child's library.

    Your decision should not be "if" I get this book for a child, but whether you get the board book, paper book, or both!

    Mostly a lovely book with a traditional song, but I have one big complaint: The baby is drinking from a bottle. It is clearly too young to be drinking anything but breast milk. I thought about throwing the book away because of this image, but my toddler loves the book so much that I decided to put up with it -- after all, as a TODDLER she drinks WATER from a bottle! If you are like me, and refuse bottle-feeding images in your breast-feeding house, you might want to consider other books before your baby gets hooked on this one.
