Most Helpful Customer Reviews 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Read! (Borders Book W/ CD-Rom Version), January 3, 2009 By  Krys (Fishers, IN) - See all my reviews This is a wonderful book! My 4-year-old loves this one. The illustrations are what first drew me to this book. They are silly and zany, yet still very well done! The main character is looking for a musical instrument called a "didgeridoo." So, he goes into a musical instrument shop, and goes on and on and on about how happy he would be if he had a didgeridoo; where he would play it, who he would play it for, who he would play it with, etc. This one ends with a surprise twist at the end! Very cute! I got mine from Borders; it came with a CD-Rom. (The sticker on the front of the book says that the CD-Rom is a Borders exclusive.) The only drawback is that I can't get it to play in just a regular CD player, like the one in my car. (If anyone has a remedy for this, I'd love to know about it. I'm not the most computer savvy person in the world.) Anyway, the CD-Rom comes with two readings: one with page-turning signals, and one without. The story on the CD-Rom is read by Jonathan Rhodes, who does a wonderful job. They also throw in some musical notes so that the reader can get an idea of just what on earth a didgeridoo sounds like! Great audio! Lastly, the CD-Rom comes with an option to print black-and-white pictures of the characters in the music shop that you and your little ones can color together. 5 stars for this one, any day! 5.0 out of 5 stars Do You?, March 14, 2009 By  Melissa T. Currier - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    This book has spurred a new language in our twins' lives. Do you do a Didgeridoo? How awesome is that? They love the story and the pictures and the rhyming and the many new words. I wish we had a dozen other books winning this kind of affection from both of our very-different twins! 4.0 out of 5 stars More than just silly rhyme...., September 19, 2008 By  B. Jones - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    I bought this book for my daughter because of the colors and images in the book. The mysterious stranger asking the music store owner looks like a long lost cast member of The Beatles Yellow Submarine cartoon. The rhymes rival anything Dr. Seuss composed, yet it offers enough diversity in it's vocabulary and introduces exotic animals and instruments as well. The Didgeridoo is an Aboriginal wind instrument that produces a low, droning sound. Not too many children's books with that as the central focus. It is a fun read, unlike a lot of Seuss books that tongue tie just for the sake of tying. Give it a look.		Ad feedback   Search Customer Reviews Only search this product's reviews
