Hop on Pop, by Dr. Seuss, Random House 1963
This was another book that I thought my son would soon tire. I was wrong. Oh, that Dr. Seuss! I couldn't tell you why he likes the book, even when he is not paying any attention to the illustrations. He just does.
I'll tell you why I like reading it out loud. It is fun in a rhymy-whymy way. It has the cadence of a chant. It is funny. And the illustrations -- even upside down and backwards, the illustrations are colorful and whimsical. Even if my son is too busy dancing to the rhythm of the text to notice the illustrations, I find them a delight.
Enjoy Seuss' birthday month with this or another favorite of his books.

Hop on Pop was one of my favorites! Right after Alex's favorite, HAND HAND FINGERS THUMB and INSIDE OUTSIDE UPSIDE DOWN..... ;-)!!!! Both of which you can still buy at Amazon!
ReplyDeleteI loved Inside, Outside, Upside Down! That was a Berenstain book, I think.
