My son loves it! Some days I'll have to do the Pookie dance for him four or five times, and any book that gets him that excited (as most of Sandra Boynton's books do) gets five stars. It's possible that he's precisely at the target age; he's not quite two and very fond of music and dancing.
I don't suppose the books about Little Pookie are all that popular because I had never seen or heard anything about them before stumbling across this one on . I am so glad I did though! Classic Sandra Boynton but for some reason this one really has become a favorite. It could be the silly pictures, fun rhymes, or just a phase our daughter is going through but we can't get enough of Little Pookie and his dance! You definitely need to add this one to the collection!
When I first got this book as a gift I thought it was ok - maybe a little sing-songy, and I wasn't so into some of the made-up words, but still ok. Turns out that my daughter has a mind of her own and LOVES it. Now 1 1/2, she really likes the rhyming ("Say hey Little Pookie, you're a wonder to see, come on my Little Pookie, won't you dance with me?"), and does the actions along with the book (reaches for the sky, then down for her toes, etc). We've read this book to her so many times, at her request, that we've now both got it memorized! Now it's a fun family read.
I've been reading a lot of Sandra Boynton books for my 9-month-old daughter, but this isn't one of my favorites. The rest of the Little Pookie books that we've read flow beautifully (Boynton is a real poet), and have some humor and a decent plot (by the standards of board books for toddlers). But I just don't find that this one flows well to read, and isn't that funny. Of all the Little Pookie books, this is the least entertaining.
My granddaughter loves the Pookie books and gravitates towards them over all the other books at my house. She reads the list on the back of the books and tells me to order the other books. I encourage her love of reading - thank you Sandra Boyton!
my son absolutely LOVES this boynton book...it's super fun for me to read it too...(neither one of us has tired of it yet)
Sandra Boynton rocks! I am not sure how she comes up with her rhyming and her wording but whatever it is it works.....My child loves all the pookie books, they are fun and well put together. In addition the board books are sturdy and colorful.great addition to any child's library!
We have 4 books by Sandra Boynton, and this one is our least favorite. I like her "What's wrong little pookie" - we started this one at about 4 months and my daughter loves it and "going to bed" - also probably better for little older kids, but pictures are fun too look at, books much better. This one is not rhymed well and picture are not that fun. I would suggest buying something else instead.
