My thoughts:
It’s a Book was an instant hit in my home. My children had watched the book trailer prior to receiving our copy in the mail. When I opened the package the day it arrived all three simultaneously said , “It’s A Book!”. There is no greater joy for a book loving mama than watching your kids fall into book love. I’ll pass by my daughter’s bedroom and hear my 5 year old reciting, “Can you blog with it?”, which prompts my 3 year old to say (with gusto), “No, It’s a Book!”. It has brought smiles to the faces of our entire family.
The only subsitute we made was for the name of the donkey. While my husband and 10 year old found the name, Jackass, hilarious, I’m not quite ready for my younger kiddos to add it to their vocabulary. So we just call him Jack. Once the girls are reading independently we may have to think of a new solution ;)
Cute, clever, and quirky! It’s a Book is a new family favorite!
