5.0 out of 5 stars dinner time review, May 15, 2000

By	cyndi slagle (north carolina, usa) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dinner Time Mini (Minipops) (Paperback)

My toddler just loves this book! He has all three books in the monster pops pop-up collection. They are wonderfully illustrated and fun to read. My son is only 15 months old, and walks around with the book in his hand waiting for me to read it to him. I like the story because it is funny and cute, and not to long, so he stays focused and not become restless. we read this book about four to six times a day! if you want your child interested in books, this is a must have. cyndi slagle

This book is sooooo adorable. The pop-ups are creative and cute. I had this book when I was little and it was always one of my favorites. It's perfect for very young children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Timeless!, November 16, 2008

This review is from: Dinner Time (Pop-Up) (Hardcover)

My son had this book when he was a child. He is now an adult, and he asked about the book one day when he and his wife were having dinner with us. His book had been ruined many years prior to this, but since he brought it up I got the idea to get another one for him. We gave it to him as one of his birthday gifts. He was soooo happy to get it! His wife has been collecting children's books anyway, so it will be added to their collection for when they have children. It is a timeless book for kids to read over and over again and to have fun with the pop ups of the animals in it--especially fun for little boys, and big boys, too!
