I came across this book while searching for the lyrics to the 'Bushel & A Peck' song from the 'Guys and Dolls' soundtrack. My grandmother used to sing the song to my mother and my mother used to sing the song to my sister and I. In keeping tradition, we both now sing the song to our children and I was so excited when I found this book! The kids love the little duck characters as they sing the song through the vibrantly colored pages. We all 'doodle oodle oodle' through the end!! If you like the song - - you will absolutely love the book!!
My 2 1/2 year old twins love it when I sing this song to them, so I was thrilled to find a book that illustrated it. The pictures are bright and fun, and it's always nice when the publisher includes the lyrics/music, as it does in this one.
My mother taught this song to me when I was little & now I can share it with my children too. The pictures are bright & engaging. My three year old & 16 month old both like to "read" the book & we sing the song together when we are finished.
A children's book based on a musical number from "Guys and Dolls"? A number that was part of a nightclub act no less? Plus it was left out of the movie version!?! As it turns out, this catchy ditty originally performed by Miss Adelaide and her Chicadees is a great song for little kids. My mother, who is "Grandma" to my 4-year-old nephew, and a long-time music teacher and Broadway fan, had already taught him the song. He loves going "Doodle-oodle-ooh-doo-doo" in a high voice at the end of each verse, and that in verse 3, the chickens are going to the dickens! So when I found out about this book, I had to get it for him. It arrived while Grandma was visiting so they read and sung it together. Grandma has since gone home, but Mommy and Daddy can sing and read it to him too. If you're looking for a cute book that you can sing with your kids, a song that was originally written for adults in a 50s-era Broadway musical so it won't annoy you like most kids songs, and has a delightful story attached with ducks and other barnyard animals, look no further. If only Loesser was still alive to see his Hollywood-rejected song turned into a fun-filled children's book and cash the royalty checks...
My mother passed away A month before Christmas. She sang this song to me when I was little and sang it to my 3 grandchildren. Since the oldest is only two, I bought these books to help keep my mothers memory alive for my grandchildren.
This is a cute little farm song with a fun melody to it. You can simply read this book to your child, sing it, or the music is included to play it on the piano. We do all three together. My husband plays it on the piano while I sing the lyrics and show my son the pictures in the book. Super cute! My son loves all books that you can sing the words to while you read it, so I also recommend the A You're Adorable book, Iza Trapani books & Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom books.
My Mom sang this to me and my siblings when we were kids, I sang it to my kids and now my daughter and I sing it to her son! We've always sung the first verse but our 4 year old grandson likes the extra verses and the interjections!The song/melody is included at the end of the book with all 3 verses of this fun Frank Loesser song. The Rosemary Wells illustrations are whimsical!
I sing this song to my grandchildren! It is so nice to have a book we can enjoy together! Love the illustrations and of course the words to the famous song from "Guys and Dolls"! Love it and so do they! Great book,
