I have loved this book for years but only just now am reviewing it. Oh Chris Van Dusen and his rhymes always make me smile. I think my storytime audience is going to enjoy this one! ( )

Extraordinary illustrations. The composition, design and color are great. It makes it all exciting and very professional. I'm not a big fan of rhyming books but this was actually very fun to read as an adult. It surely is a great collection to have as a paperback too. The kids had lots of fun, the story incited their imagination and discussion. I love a great children's book with a lot of improbable and surreal adventures. ( )

Another awesome picture book. ( )

A great rhyming story about Mr. Magee and his little dog Dee taking a boat ride. They encounter an unruly little whale who's big splash lands them in a tree. The other whales come to save the day and Magee and Dee eat their lunch for dinner that day. Wonderful illustrations!

A favorite read aloud, great for rhyming and for narrative prediction. ( )
