A friend recommended this book for my 2 year old. It has not disappointed. We read it regularly. My son asks for it by name and won't go to bed until we read it. My son loves to make the faces of Mr. Boo (surprised, happy, scared) and point out all the details on the pages. I am looking forward to reading this with my other children when they are old enough.

My two and a half year old daughter loves this book and asks for it by name every night at bedtime. The story is great and has provided this dad with a daily chance to practice his funny voices. But what really has been the winner with my daughter is the art work. The pages are a wonderful combination of colorful drawings and vivid clipart that contain a vast assortment of unusual items, "hidden" cat silhouettes and even a robot that goes for a swim (my daughter caught on to that one before me). All of these different images not only give the child something to look at, but my daughter has learned that names of no less than twenty objects during our nightly reading. I certainly hope that we see more of Mr. Boo and Max. Thanks Richard!

This is a book that the kids will want you to read over and over again, and each time find a new discovery on the wonderful decorated walls and shelves of Boo and Max's warm little house.

A real pleasurable read and journey for the kids - and for the kid inside all of us. I highly recommend it - looks like a series to me.
