i used to love the frank asch bear stories but somehow i'd never seen this one growing up. but it was one of neal's childhood favorites, so i brought a copy hope from the library to share. we read it together today to get in the halloween spirit and it was kind of the best thing ever. i only wish the halloween parties i go to now would live up to it. gotta get us our own copy of this one!

This book is about a little bear that has a costume party and everyone brings popcorn to the party. When they pop all of the popcorn, it goes everywhere and they have to eat their way out. I would use this book around Halloween time and even have popcorn for the kids to eat for a snack after reading the book or even during.

This is one of those books that I loved as a child and searched and searched for as an adult. I finally found my copy at a local used bookstore and I was thrilled. Yes, it was as good as I remembered! Loved the illustrations and all of the different costumes the bears wear to the party.

this was one of my favorite books as a child. i have such fond memories of reading this with my mother and brother. it is also probably to blame for my current obsession with popcorn.

Donna: This was one of my niece, Isabel's, favorites. She wanted it almost every night for months. Even seeing the cover cracks me up because you just know what's going to happen!

It is so much fun to read Popcorn to a group of preschool children--especially when you serve popcorn for snack! They love it! It's now a favorite of my grandchildren as well!

Read this when I was little (or more likely had it read to me). I hope I can find a copy to read to my kids in the future.

Favorite book from childhood. Can you imagine that much popcorn? Yum!!! I have it on the bookshelf for my daughter.

I swear I read this one as a kid. It looked very familiar, so I read it again. Cute. Predictable, but cute.

Another favourite children's book of mine. I grew up with it and now I read it to my kids.

I remember reading this book over and over and over again. So excited to finally own it again!

This is the ultimate hangover parable.

My all-time favorite bedtime story when I was a little girl. It's a great Halloween book, too!

Great story behind why I adore this book. So the doctors office I went to as a child had this book in the waiting room and EVERY time I went to the doctor's office, I HAD to read this. I even read it as I got too old to read these sorts of books. Then one visit, it was gone! And I was devastated! Years went by and one day my mom found it at a garage sale and bought it for me. SO EXCITED! Great story!

My doctor's office had this book. I probably won't have remembered it, but another teacher showed me a copy of it a few weeks ago and I totally had a strong flashback (I wish it had a picture of the cover). I used to read this book every week as I waited for my allergy shots.

While not quite as good as "Milk and Cookies" this was one of my favorite books as a pre-schooler. It's just plain fun! I still think sometimes, when I visualize a space, what it would look like filled with Popcorn!
