Llama Llama is home from school, sick, but it is delightful to read and hear.Again I bought 3, one for each of our grandchild families. Those kids can't get enough of the Llama Llama stories. This is the latest following the highly grandchild-acclaimed `Llama Llama Holiday Drama.' What a wonderful book to read to a child when they really are home sick from school. It will perk them up, Mama too.All Llama Llama books do NOT fail bringing smiles and squeals of delight from young children. They love the rhythmic words and cuddly drawings that have made this series such a collectable hit with teachers, parents, adults, as well as the kids. Get the Holiday Drama book as well as this new "Llama Llama Home with Mama" for Christmas gifts. That's exactly what Nana and Pa have done, and we will read this new version prior to gifting. Later we will get the chance to read it to our grandchildren, over, and over, and over, and over. In the end, Llama Llama always learns a lesson suited for all, from toddlers to elderly seniors.The illustration art inside is the same great Llama quality as all of the Llama Llama books. Although I'm now retired, these books are always a HUGE hit in elementary school classrooms. A must-own set for teachers, so fun to read to the class. Kids beg, "Read it again, please. Read it again." That happens every time, with every Llama Llama book. What a wonderful, and affordable, gift to give your elementary child's teacher for the holiday. Beginning homeschooling readers will read Llama Llama books till they have them memorized.The series:Llama Llama Red PajamaLL Mad at MamaLL Misses MamaLL Holiday Drama& now Llama Llama Home with MamaAlso has postings for pre-purchase opportunity on younger children's board books with the same wonderful Anna Dewdney Llama Llama character. Check out Llama Llama Nighty-Night and Llama Llama Wakey-Wake; 14 page books for less than $6 that we'll have to pick up for our newest grandchild, Frank, to be born in just 2 weeks. He should be able to read them by January, after all, he is our grandson. :)
This is the latest installment of the Llama Llama series. Again, I am forced to read this book 3x in a row. This is my children's favorite series.I love the interaction between Mama Llama and Llama Llama. My kids seem to relate well to the stories because Llama Llama reminds them of themselves. We have read it so often that my kids say the ending word (so they help me rhyme). This author has done a really good job of telling cute story that entertains kids. I especially like towards the end when Mama Llama catches Llama Llama's cold, and now Llama Llama is doing the stuff mama did for him.Nice read for daytime or bedtime.
We purchased this on pre-order and were very excited for it to arrive.I wasn't as pleased as I was with the first two Llama Llama books. The rhymes and rhythm in this latest installment seem trite rather than charming, and the illustrations seem rushed. Whereas "Llama Llama Red Pajama" and "Llama Llama Out with Mama" evoked sentimental feelings and misty eyes for this mother of two, I was just ready for this current installment to be over. Still, it's cute, and my children enjoyed it.If you're new to Anna Dewdney, try "Llama Llama Red Pajama" or "Roly Poly Pangolin" first. In my opinion, these are her best books.
Still better than most children's books, but not nearly as charming as other entries in the Llama Llama series. Plot-wise it doesn't seem to offer any good lessons, unlike "Misses Mama", "Mad at Mama," or "Time to Share". A bit of a disappointment.
WE LOVE Llama Llama! So cute - can't wait to get all the other ones. That llama llama is such a sweetie, and will remind you of some kids you know! We often end up reading Llama Llama books after we read others - so they get read the most along with Dr. Seuss books. They rhyming really makes it fun for our little one.
My son is a big fan of the llama llama series. I thought this book was really cute and held his attention. I also found it true to life (those of you who are moms and have read it will know what I'm talking about). I think it is a good book to save for a "sick day." This is definitely one of my favorites form the series.
BOUGHT 6 OF THESE HARDCOVER BOOKS FOR MY GRANDAUGHTER FOR XMAS. ALL 6 DIFFERENT STORIES FOCUS ON THE IRRITATIONS OF DAILY LIFE FOR THE POOR YOUNG LLAMA. EASY TO UNDERSTAND STORYLINE FOR ANY 18 MONTH OLD OR OLDER. THE ILLUSTRATIONS IN THE BOOK ARE ALSO VERY EXPRESSIVE. YOU WILL REALLY ENJOY READING THESE BOOKS TO THE KIDS..
After receiving "Llama Llama Red Pajama" for my son's birth, I went out and purchased more of the series books. The book is wonderfully illustrated and my son (now 16 months old) loves Llama Llama. I highly recommend this book for all parents of small (less than 3 years old) children.
