I thought this book was so much fun! If you have young children or you teach younger grades in elementary school, this book is especially worth having. The best part about the book was the fact that there were flaps that made the animals do the motions that the words are describing. This is a good book to get the kids active and out of their seats so they have time to wiggle and then come back to focusing on the task at hand. I also think this is a good book to share when you are teaching your children or students to be grateful or to point out what makes them happy. It gives them an opportunity to see how blessed they are and how much they have compared to children from other countries. Overall, I thought it was a really well written and illustrated book.

A fun book to sing along with children to. Cute cartoon animals and a couple of variations on the traditional lyrics make this an enjoyable book to read or rather, sing aloud.

I love this song, and book was really cute with the hands that clapped and the feet that stomped. Cute and kind of silly, great for kids!

I really loved this book! It was way cute! I really like the idea of the pull tabs to have the animals do what the song said, great idea!! I will want this in my classroom!!

This was a fun little book. I think kids would really enjoy this one especially because it's interactive. The artwork is also cute.
