This hilarious book is sure to spark some discussions with your child. (And what toddler wouldn't be able to sympathize with the travails these creatures have with buttons, zippers, snaps, and so on?)
Why do children love these books by Judi Barrett?
They're just funny. The animals in implausible situations. The weather behaving completely unpredictably (meatballs?!).
