Beneath a Blue Umbrella, a melon seller sat.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beneath a Blue Umbrella (Hardcover)
This was my cousin's favorite book as a child. Jack Prelutsky did a good job of it. Even though the book is about as long as a novel, my baby cousin (now nine and a half) sat through the whole book. When she got up to Anna Banana, she would hold her hands up in the air like she was walking on them. The poems, (some based on familiar nursery rhymes) others totally original, are still staples around our household. I would reccomend it to any child. --Robert Metz

When I take out the "Frog" book, his eyes light up and he gets all excited and claps and can't wait for me to start reading.
