A fun litle story that intertwines common known tongue twisters throughout. A good out loud read for anybody. Jecel really thought this book was cool!

This book gets a five because it gives the reader a little bit of a challenge when they read an easy book. It's pretty rare to find a kids book with tongue twisters. When I was reading the book, I messed up a few times because of the clever tongue twisters.

This book has a few tongue twisters as it says in the title. This book ins't bad for younger kids, but I didn't enjoy it as much.

This came too late to try and incorporate for a storytime, but it was still fun to read. I had hoped it would be new (to me) tongue twisters that actually told a story. However, they were mostly ones I was familiar with that were strung together. It's still fun. And good for reading practice. I was amazed I was able to read the bitter batter tongue twister aloud as well as I did.

Simple and still fun, but I'm a bit disappointed it was not a book of new tongue twisters. I enjoy those. My uncle created a game that was all about tongue twistersm, and I guess that helped form an affinity in me for them. Then perhaps I should create my own tongue twister picture book.

I admit that I read this book silently and even in my brain the tongue twisters were twisting. I can't imagine what it would be like to read it out loud. I would stumble all over myself.

Fun book!

This is a cute story about classic tongue twisters. Children love tongue twisters. The illustrations are colorful, yet cartoonish. This would be perfect to do a lesson on alliteration.
