Friendly Mr. Horse offers rides to the other barnyard animals. One by one, cat, dog, pig and duck ask to be included, and then to go faster, FASTER!! They start to fall, Mr. Horse "skids to a halt"-- and over they fly, into a haystack. Mr. Horse is worried, but his friends are fine-- and want to go "AGAIN!"

From the familiar theme, to the simple but evocative art, to the demonstration of manners (many requests are accompanied by "please"-- frequently enough to reinforce the message), this book is wonderful. My 3 year old wants to hear it again and "AGAIN!" and loves to show me where each animal is going to be on the next page. I enjoy the art, and the suggestion of motion and emotion. This book is a big hit with us both!

My little niece loves it when characters in books fall down and then get up again. So this book is very exciting because the children go for an exciting ride, bounce in some straw, get up, and start again. The rhymes are very fun to read out loud!

My daughter just giggles everytime we read this to her. Great buy!

Clip Clop is pure joy. My 2 year old got it for Christmas and we read it every night. Even my 5 yr old loves it. It is a fun tale of a ride on the farm. "Again" is all I hear. The kids love to read it to me.

We checked this book out from the library and it has become one of my two-year-old's favorites. Toddlers will love the farm animals, and parents will enjoy (maybe) coming up with different voices for each animal. The text is simple enough that your 2-year-old will soon be reading along with you, and most likely will be galloping around the house saying "Clip-Clop!"

This is the most-requested book at our house right now. Simple language, simple characters and predictable patterns. We can't go to bed these days without a run through "Clip-Clop"!

I bought this sight unseen for my nephew and I love the cute story and illustrations. I plan on adding this one to my library as well!

This book is super cute. It is the perfect size for my daughter, who is two. She loves animals and the story line is cute. The pictures are simple and she is into animals lately so it's a great book for her.

Bought this for my 2 year old and we read it a few times each week! She loves it and laughs every time, as if it was the first. I have even found her reading it to herself, saying "clip clop" as she turns the pages. A wonderful book for any 2-4 year old.

I used this book with my preschool class when we studied about horses. They loved it when the animals flew off of the horse. As I read the book, I had them interact with the story by patting their laps in clip-clop rhythm whenever I read the words, clip-clop. As the horse went faster, they tapped their legs faster (great for teaching about fast and slow, or rhythm). We all really enjoyed the story!
