I love DIRT BOY
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
My brother and I make our mom read this book every night. My favorite part is when the birds make a nest in Fister's hair, and then they say PU! I like the giant, Dirt Man, too. We laugh when Fister's mom squirts him with the hose and says Shoo shoo. She thinks he is a monster.
Slangerup is a Slanger-champ with Dirt Boy

The Lengend of Dirt Boy is less a story and more a parable. Encouraging little boys to keep clean is as easy as pole vaulting to Neptune. Slangerup's tale of a boy who refuses to clean up (and the resulting consequences) is a welcome means to educate as well as entertain. I'm not sure if it's enough to keep kids clean, but it sure has me scrubbing behind the ears. The House of Harper eagerly awaits Slangerup's next offering.
Two Dirty Thumbs Up!

Finally, a book I don't mind reading to my boys over and over again. Its entertaining story is just as spellbinding to my 5 year old as it is to my 8 year old, and every detail of the story is beautifully captured in full-page illustrations. This is a family favorite that will be passed down to the next generation. I highly recommend it.

This is a really cool book. We liked it when he was in the giant's bellybutton. Everyone would like this book because it is funny and teaches you to take a bath and brush your teeth when you get dirty. Second Grade
Absolutely Delightful

My kids loved it. It's now their favorite bed time book. My kids have always enjoyed playing in the mud, now they even joy hopping in the tub!
