Love the Book, but…
Published by K , 6 months ago
I have been wanting this book again as I lost copy I bought for my boys when we lived in England.I already knew storyline, so that is not the problem. The condition of book was NOT acceptable. Pages that have been torn, then taped up not cool. Some of the staining ok, the tears on the edges… yea no. Acceptable to ME is minor wear and tear, a bit of aging.
Too bad this book is out of print

Was lucky enough to find a reasonably priced used copy of this fun children's book. Fifteen years ago, I bought it new for my children. Over the years, I have tired to buy it as a gift for other children but, until this purchase, was unsuccessful. Wish a publisher would reissue it.
A wonderful story

My daughter loves looking at this book; her eyes light up with each unfolding page and she goes through it time and again.

I purchased this book before Kipper became popular. I am a Speech-Language Pathologist and all my clients love the book. It provides for enjoyment even after reading it several times to a child. It's great for language stimulation for verbs, adjectives, locatives, and colors. It has become my favorite book of all time.
A sweet story for little kids

This is a good book to use for beginning reading to your child. It's simple to read, the pictures are cute, and the fold out surprises make the book engaging for even the youngest readers. My daughter is 6 months old, and enjoys having this book read to her... We always make an event of unfolding the pictures of the balloon as it changes shape and grows, and her eyes widen in delight!
