User Submitted Chicka Chicka Boom Boom ReviewsNovember 1, 2008 Sad Ending This book sent our 18 month old into a crying fit because it ends sadly. After all the letters try to climb the tree, they all fall out and the book ends. Bummer. When you're 18 months, falling isn't fun - it hurts. We had to get rid of the book. September 6, 2008 EXCELLENT! This book is magnificent! It is one of my favorite children's books. I made a recording of me reading the book and the children in the class always walks around singing the the book as a song. It is a book they will always remember. It is at the top of my list of recommended reading! September 3, 2008 All our family loves this book This book was another accidental find in our library, a present from our library-sale loving friend. I love reading this story to my daughter (22 months at the time of this review), and I enjoy its rhythm and its illustrations. The story is a little long for a toddler, Anna usually loses interests after the letters fall off the tree, but she enjoys saying out of the blue, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom! ... Enough room? when she is playing with something else. Those little wheels in her head are obviosly turning :) July 28, 2008 Two boys' review: Little boys love Chicka Chicka Boom Boom This is a regular addition to our bedtime reading collection for our two sons (ages 5 and 4). The book is colorful, fast and fun to read. Both of my kids already know their ABCs but that doesn't prevent them from enjoying this book and giggling like mad as they read these lines: "Skit skat skoodle doot. Flip flop flee..." "mamas and papas and uncles and aunts..." July 17, 2008 I love it, younger niece loves it The older niece (5) has recently stopped liking this book, and will leave the room when I read it. Not sure what's up with that, she used to like it well enough. Her little sister, though, will stand by her desire to have it read when *normally* she caves to Big Sister Pressure. This book has a very bouncy rhythm and tune (if you know the tune), and very colorful illustrations. It's just fun to read, and it's quick, too. I definitely recommend it to young kids, especially any in the age where they're learning about letters. May 28, 2008 Educatioal and Well Written What a FUN book! My two-year-old son loves this book and I love to read it to him. The words have a great cadence and I find myself singing each page! The pictures are very primitive which is nice (no sensory overload) and it helps young children to learn their alphabet. The story is super cute and the author uses great imagery. Although the illustrations are primitive, you can imagine these letters racing up the coconut tree! It's a wonderful book for any child's collection! May 23, 2008 All-time FAVORITE kid's book! I remember reading this to my youngest sister so it brings back a lot of good memories. This is the MOST FUN book to read. I giggle EVERY time I read it!! Plus, you can't go wrong with a book that educates! (Alphabet) May 5, 2008 LOVE this bookf This is a terrific alphabet book with a fun rhythm to it. My children love it! The reading on the CD by Ray Charles is dull. April 24, 2008 BEST ABC Book By Far I love the fun rhythmic way this book can be read. It was very well thought out and goes over each alphabet twice in a manner that would rivet a child's attention to the story. This ABC book would be quite difficult to top. I remember this book from my own childhood. April 21, 2008 Love it! Great book for children of all ages, one that you'll read over and over again! For more Chicka Chicka Boom Boom reviews click here.
