This is a great book to read to early readers. It has great use of rhyming words throughout the whole book, as do most Dr Seuss books. This book discusses the different sounds many animals make; such as a cow, a bee, and butterfly. It also discusses the sounds of other things, such as the rain. I enjoyed this book as a child and still enjoy reading it.

This books is about Mr. Brown who can make many different sounds. Kids will be able to make sounds and interact with the teacher while she is reading the book. This book also identifies many objects and animals and can be a fun read aloud book.

This book is wonderful with incorporating more class participation. It has patterned text, it's repetitive, and it is really fun to read because it is filled with all sorts of sounds. Great book for beginning readers and to read in a group.

This book is a quick (rhyming) runthough of the wonderful sounds Mr. Brown can do, starting with the prosaic (moo, moo, choo choo) to the obscure and absurd (a "goldfish kiss" (pip!) and a "hippopotomus chewing gum" (grum, grum, grum), those are just two examples).

This book is short, which makes it great for early readers and for toddlers learning to talk, as well as for those hurry-through-bedtime days.

It's also really interactive, so it's terrific for group storytimes, especially with more active little kids who don't just want to sit down quietly. Every page ends with the narrator asking if you can make that noise too - and trust me, they can. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0394806220, Hardcover)

Oh, the wonderful things Mr. Brown can do! In this "Book of Wonderful Noises," Mr. Brown struts his stuff, as he imitates everything from popping corks to horse feet ("pop pop pop pop" and "klopp klopp klopp," respectively) while inviting everyone to join him in the fun. Young readers who are still learning their sounds and letters will get a wacky workout as they follow along with the very serious-looking, squinty-eyed Mr. Brown. Whether it's eggs frying in a pan or a hippo chewing gum, the skillful Mr. Brown just keeps topping himself, with a "sizzle sizzle" or a "grum grum grum." "Mr. Brown is so smart he can even do this: he can even make a noise like a goldfish kiss!... pip!" As usual, the words and pictures of Dr. Seuss make reading (and making all sorts of funny noises) impossible to resist. Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You? will stay fresh through many a giggling reading. --Paul Hughes
