LOVED IT!!! June 2, 2009 Karen Eppler (Kearney, Missouri) The children and I loved, loved, loved this book with its subtle humor and surprise twists. There is lots of opportunity for input of ideas and if I could read it 5 times in a row, it has to be able to keep the reader's interest.
A Classic... April 30, 2009 Boo (Glen Rose, TX USA) Good easy reader teaching children positional words and their meanings. Also teaches children that there is meaning in every portion of a book. Pictures need to be looked at, also. A book to enjoy just for the sake of enjoyment, too!
Classic! June 14, 2008 Zahira (Costa Mesa Ca) THis story is classic. I use this book so much that I have to retire my old copy and replace it with a new one every couple of years. It is a fabulous vehicle for storywriting in the primary classroom.
Rosie's Walk January 7, 2008 LRL (Indiana) I have been reading Pat Hutchins books to children for many years. They are wonderful!! Rosie's Walk is a great book for sound effects! As Rosie goes obliviously on her walk,the fox encounters all sorts of sound effect producing trials. Great fun!
more than meets the eye November 15, 2007 Elisa's Mom (Dallas, TX) We have the board book edition, and I have to admit, I didn't think my 2-year old was going to like it when I first flipped through it. There didn't seem to be much to it --- no eye-catching illustrations and not much text. Shows how much I know... My daughter loves it. The story is less about Rosie the hen and more about the fox --- what happens to it from page to page. It is truly a sequential story and shows cause-and-effect: on one page you see the fox leaping towards Rosie, who is walking past the pond. On the next page, you see the fox in the pond. Your toddler will make the connection on her own: "Uh-oh. Fox fall in water."
