Title: absolutely wonderful, especially for children of color
Review: I ordered this book because Iove Oxembury and because my children are African American. Sometimes (ALWAYS) it is difficult to find terrific children's books with black protagonists who are not living in the ghetto or in some sort of a "statement" book. This filled the bill! The family is funny, funky and believable. The illustrations are delightful, the baby is great (my two year old recites with the book, plays with the action and says "no!" just like mom) and the repetition is perfect and predictable without being boring. Any child would adore the book. My only complaint is that I have read it every evening for three weeks and I think we will be reading it for a while longer! This is going for be a classic!
