"So can I" is a great little book I picked up on a bargain stand and wore out because we read it so many times. It's part of a series called the Red Nosed Readers by Allan Ahlberg. Each book is a series of short little stories. The only other one I have seen is called "Make a Face". I suspect these books were made to help teach kids how to read. We wore them out way before the kids ever learned how to read. They have great little pictures, repetitive phrases, and funny endings. These two little books were all it took to hook us on Allan Ahlbergs books. Wish I could find out how many other Red Nosed Readers are in the series---all out of print from what I can tell.

Though a little confusing, this book is imaginative as the author expresses himself in the story. The Brown family is a fictional family in the story's story. Get what I mean? Well, the author is in the story as well. What ever he writes in his story about the Brown family will come true! Well, of course the Brown family demanded something good each of them would have! Plus their demands were too high! um... If you still can't get me, buy the book and read it!
