3/31/10 & 4/1/10 I needed a book really quick for movement to use in the toddler time, but I didn't realize how close it was to London's "Crunch Munch" until I reviewed the book right before storytime. I skipped the last few pages in the storytimes since they were just reviews and I didn't think the toddlers would want to do them all over again. But both groups did enjoy doing the actions along with me. I think once in a while they thought it was an animal sound book instead of action, but o...more
I think some kids & families would like to own this. I think my boys would have liked to use their imaginations to expand it to other animals. I do like the diversity of animals included. Definitely very simple, no plot, for pre-school Movement. Some characterization, as the cat, for example, walks 'Pish-Posh, Pish-Posh.'

This simple story about animals and how they move will be a hit in toddler storytime! The children will love walking like an elephant, wiggle waggling like a duck, and more!
This book goes through a nice variety of animals. It matches the way they walk with a sound. Its perfect for toddlers and preschoolers to act out and read along.
This simple book with clear bold illustration is sure to get the kids moving in storytime!

Similar to Head to Toe: good book to use a few active minutes with the younger class.
Mommy says: This plot, pattern and cadence are a lot like London's Crunch Munch.
Walk like the animals with this simple book. Great for toddlers.
Love the rhythm of the book, makes it fun to read aloud.
The sounds of animals walking. Fun read!
Pair this with "Animal Action" song.
Fun! Baby or PreK Storytime.
movement, animals
How do a duck, horse, elephant, camel, penguin, pig, frog, bear, cat and kangaroo walk?
For this story I pick up my 15 month old and "walk the walk"...I also "talk the talk" and add an animal noise (not included in the book)...he thinks this is all very silly....
Cute illustrations.
Good, but not great.
