Right away this book is appealing to the eye. Bright colors with round friendly little aliens bouncing through the pages. And what's inside lives up to the cover and the excitement of the title. Its revealed the aliens visit the earth because of its underpants. And the story in fun rhyme proceeds to tell what aliens do with underpants. Its a great story to be realoud to younger kids, with simple words and great pictures that will hold their attention. A definate new favorite. That's sure to appeal to all.

This is such a fun book for both toddler boys and girls. My daughter was resistant to wearing underpants but now takes great joy in searching her underpants for hidden aliens every morning while getting dressed. It seems to be a great companion to toilet training books since wearing big girl or boy underpants is such a huge part of that process. Fun and silly, we read this book aloud all the time as part of our bed time routine. Aliens Love Underpants

Okay, this book is hilarious and really cute, and as the mother of a preschooler we are trying to potty train I thought it would be a great way to encourage him to wear underpants. But as the story developed, I sensed he was becoming apprehensive about the possibility of aliens landing in the backyard and pilfering through his sock drawer. At the end of the story I asked if HE wanted to wear underwear and he emphatically said, "No!" I asked why not and he plainly replied that he didn't want the aliens to steal them. My husband almost had to leave the room from laughing so hard. Fun book, but beware! :)

Underwear is always a lively topic amongst children. So why not combine their love of underwear with another--Aliens! Most of our vision of Aliens consists of those little green martians flying from outer space to take over Earth. But in this hilarious picture book, that's just not the case.

"When aliens fly down to Earth,
They don't come to meet YOU...
They simply want your underpants--
I'll bet you never knew!"

Aliens Love Underpants! (Book & CD) is a fun story sure to entertain the whole family. Since there are no underpants in space, aliens come to Earth because they simply want to steal your underpants. And those silly aliens like underpants in all sizes and colors--large or small, red or green--no matter what kind of fabric they're made of. They think Mom's pink, frilly panties are a perfect place to hide. And Grandpa's woolly long johns make a super-whizzy slide! This zany rhyming tale describes the mayhem that breaks out when aliens visit Planet Earth to get their mitts (and tentacles) on underpants!

Ben Cort's lively illustrations are out of this world. You just can't resist the illustration of the Aliens admiring statues of underpants as if they were in the Louvre and the Hot Pants bumper sticker on their spaceship says it all.

I will admit the rhyming leaves a lot to be desired but the kids just love it. The pictures are bright and colorful. And they even love some of the smarmy rhymes. I read this to my own children and have used it for story time at the public library. It was an instant hit and in demand.

I bought this book for all of my son's friends. It's hilarious and easy to read. I hear it's a universal favorite!

My 2 1/2 year old twin grandchildren are well into potty training. I thought they would enjoy the books about aliens in underpants. The books are cute. I also bought two Aliens Love Underpants Doll: 7". The books are written in rhyme, although it is a bit forced in a few places. I think they will have fun with the dolls and their parents will have a good time reading the books to them (I put a high priority on that).

This book has a rhyming, catchy story. The illustrations are definetely the best part. They are cute little aliens wearing underwear. Hilarious. I like books that have a small story and detailed illustrations so we can make up our own story and use our imaginations. This fits the bill.

My daughters, aged 8 and 4, both loved it. I also teach second grade and the students in my class enjoyed the book as well. The story is cute, creative, and funny.

This book is fun, colourful and just what kids love. My children are 3 and 5 and both love it. We have read it over and over. The story is not too long so easiy read at bed time. Well worth it.
