My 2 year old daughter loved the first four books by Kit Allen and even memorized them! This book is fun too. The pictures and small number of words on each page help keep her attention throughout the entire book. If she could type, she would highly recommend these books, and as her parents we do too.

A spirited little girl leads a pack of boys at the playground and encourages a timid newcomer boy to go down the slide. Expressive, fun pictures with minimal text. We love all of Kit Allen's books including Galoshes and Sweater... nice subtle humor.

We have trouble keeping our eight-month-old's attention with most of her books. But she loves this one. Partly it's the bright colors and the quick reading, but I think mostly it's the sound effects called for on the parent's part. Daddy reading "AAAAAAAH!" and "WOOOOO-HOOOOO!" is endlessly entertaining.

This story begins with a little boy at the playground. He discovers the slide. He thinks that it's just a really neat chair. Some other kids at the playground have to show him what it is. He wants to try but he's really scared of the slide. The kids at the playground encourage him and he really enjoys his ride on the slide. He wants to go again and again!

With one phrase and drawing a page it's sure to keep the little ones attention. Perfect book for toddlers and babies.

Perfect book for toddlers and babies. The book is make of sturdy paper pages making it easy for little hands to turn!

If you enjoy reading to your kids and inserting inflection - this is the book for you. My 4 and 6 year old's laugh every time we read it.

My son has sat and turned the pages of this book since he was 9 months old. He loves the contrasting scale of the faces. It is by far his favorite book. He smiles and laughs every single time we read it. I must admit, I adore it as well. There's lots of opportunity to be really dramatic in the reading. Which makes it fun for the reader too!
