Critics cheered when Tom and his toy monkey Pippo made their picture-book debut. Publishers Weekly called the books "right on target for this age and sure to captivate". Now in a sturdy board book format, the gentle adventures of this favorite pair can be enjoyed by even the youngest readers.

A nice board book for your toddler,
By
This review is from: Tom and Pippo Read a Story (Tom and Pippo) (Board book)
A simple and sweet story about reading books with daddy. For some reason when this series was adapted for the board book format the story was changed from first to third person. But it is still a nice book to share with your young ones.

Super book for your little "reader.",
By molly d (Chicago) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tom and Pippo Read a Story (Tom and Pippo) (Board book)
Anyone who has read stacks and stacks of book to their little one will appreciate this sweet book. "Daddy likes to read his paper, but he doesn't mind reading to Tom." The text is pleasingly simple. The illustrations are also fairly minimal, yet there are some wonderful details that toddlers love, like a cat that would rather not be around Tom too much. A favorite at our house.

Father Begrudgingly Reads to Son,
By reviewer "j.o." (Philadelphia, PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tom and Pippo Read a Story (Paperback)
This book was a disappointment. The plot is that the father would rather read a newspaper than read books to his son. The book actually says something like "When daddy just can't read anymore..." In the end, the boy reads to his monkey, hoping that his monkey will learn to read by himself. I found it sad. My daughter who is 18 months old, however, loves this book. Perhaps she doesn't understand its meaning.
