"Boo to a goose" is a refreshingly silly book that's fun to read to kids. The structure is very repetitive, so they know exactly when to say that they "wouldn't say boo to a goose," and all of the other, braver things that they would do instead are funny to slightly older kids too.

The explanation of why the storyteller is scared of geese comes suddenly at the end, and wraps it up nicely (and in a silly way).

I enjoy reading this book to my 2.5 year old son. It is repetative and enjoyable as he chimes in with the "Boo to a goose" line. They say this is how young kids start to learn how to read! I think it is just fun to have a book that helps your child interact with the reader. The illustrations are also unique and fun...a collage type art. I recommend this book for any parent that enjoys interactive reading time with their child 2+.

This book is #1 with my 26 month old. It's rhyming sing song way and its consistent "boo to a goose" have her reading along with me and laughing the entire way.

Although the ages given for this book are 4-8, I find that this is a wonderful book for younger children. This has quickly become my 2 year old daughter's favorite book as she can say the word "boo" and can listen and know when to say it within the story line. This makes it fun for her as she is not only listening as I read but also adding to it herself. Not since "Goodnight Moon" has a book made such a hit in our household!

Bright and bold illastrations firmly keep the childs attention, whilst Mem Foxs rhyming has them quickly reading along with you. A big favourite for many children.

I ordered this book for my best friends little girl for Christmas and as of mid January have not received it. I love the book itself and read it in a local bookstore, but found it much cheaper from this company on Amazon only it never arrived. I would not order from this company again.
