The students love this book because they know the tunes.

LyndsayE82 | Jul 29, 2010 |

This isn't my favorite book. In fact, I cringe at the silly and naughty things the children do in these books -BUT the kids at school LOVE this book. So, for that reason alone, I'll give this book five stars. One could always turn it into a lesson that what we see on TV or read in books, sometimes, should stay on TV and in books. It may be funny in a book, but in reality, breaking all the windows in a house wouldn't be all that funny. Most older kids know that; but you'll want to explain this to younger kids. (

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0689845510, Hardcover)

If you fear you might go on a rampage if you hear the lyrics to "Wheels on the Bus" even one more time, take heart: These reimagined, "silly dilly" lyrics can breathe new life into kid favorites like "Wheels," "Itsy Bitsy Spider," and even "Bingo."

Just as they did with Take Me Out of the Bathtub, Alan Katz and David Catrow lampoon the classics with rowdy humor and fun-to-sing rhymes. "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands"? Nope. Try "He's Got the Whole Beach in His Pants." "Frere Jacques" becomes "I'm a menace" and you can forget about old McDonald and his farm--that tune now tells the story of "My friend Donald's catfish parm."

Katz wisely keeps the lyrics from straying too far into bathroom territory, keeping the fun both palatable and genuinely funny, and illustrator Catrow (Plantzilla, Santa Claustrophobia) again proves an indispensable member of the team, with wry details and memorable characters. (Ages 4 to 8) --Paul Hughes
