My 4 year old loved this book!
My 4 year old daughter picked out this book on her own at thelibrary and ever since we have been fans of Denys Cazet! As a parent,I love the way the illustrations show what is going on "behind the scenes" of the story told by first-grader Arnie of his first field trip to the aquarium. My daughter especially enjoyed the character who spoke in Spanish throughout the book. Even now, months after we last read it, just mentioning some of her favorite lines (such as "squeeze a whale juiceless") can send her into gales of laughter. This is definitely one we plan to purchase for our home library. END

Are There Any Questions-- by: Denys Cazet
This book is a very humerous account of a first grade field trip to the aquarium. Arnie tells his mother all about the field trip, but instead of just leaving the story at Arnie's point of view, the author expands the story using little speech bubbles to clue you in on what really happened. My personal favorite character was the Spanish-speaking Carmelo Ramirez. This book was all out funny, and I would recommend it to anyone, of any age to read.

The pictures describes the story well.
I LIKE THE BOOK BECAUSE GRANDPA TRIES TO GUESS WHAT YEAR IT IS. I DON'T LIKE WHEN THE GRANDPA GETS NAKED AND DANCES. I LIKE THE PICTURES THAT DESCRIBES THE WRITING. I RECCOMMEND IT FOR YOUNGER KIDS

great for any time of year!
i have read this to all 3 of my daughters (6,4,& will be 2 on christmas eve).they love the illustrations & the comical story. the book holds many little surprises & the author mentions some little-known holidays to the younger set. good way to sneak in a little informal history while holding the biggest surprise for the end!!

Annie, Bea, and Chi Chi Dolores: A School Day Alphabet
This energetic alphabet book follows three friends, Annie, Bea, and Chi Chi Dolores, through a day of kindergarten. I teach a bilingual kindergarten and use this book during the first week or two. Both the children and I love it.

Never Poke a Squid
Very funny book about two friends and a costume adventure (in class). If an adult is reading it out loud be sure he or she reads it through a few times. Part of the fun is the "delivery" of the dialogue - it will be more fun for younger kids who are not as fluid with their reading.

One of the worst
My husband and 5 yr. old daughter all agreed this was one of the rudest and most tasteless childrens' books we've ever read. Luckily we didn't waste a nickel on it...unfortunately the library did.

a bit much
My grandchildren really enjoy the Minnie and Moo books and I bought this one for them without really looking at it. I read it myself however, before reading it to them and was greatly disappointed by the references to the hamburgers as recently deceased acquaintances of Minnie and Moo. I have been a vegetarian for 13 years but do not feel it is appropriate to explain the reasons or images of slaughtering cows to my grandchildren before they are capable of handling this information. The story could have been just as much fun without the hamburger episode.

Minnie and Moo Go Dancing
This is one of the funniest children's books I have run across in over 55 years of working with young readers! In the past year, I have seen one very solemn, shy, second grader read the book aloud to her class and, miracle upon miracle, become an out-going smiling child. During the same year, I have worked with a non-reading 5th grader, whose main ambition in life has become to be able to read Minnie and Moo Go Dancing on her own. AND, we are actually getting there! Thank you Denys Cazet!

When the kid sticks his tongue out is the best.
I think that people who like dancing would prefer this book, called dancing by denys cazet.I didn't like it because the illustration was boring. It's written by denys cazet oh by the way I kind of don't like dancing. One thing I liked about the book was when the kid yells.

Dancing has good watercolor illustrations.
I did enjoy this book because it was fun looking at the pictures--because they are cool. I really liked the style of illustration using the dark and light watercolor media. And the writing fit the pictures !

Terrifying imagery
I found myself paraphrasing the entire book because of its horrifying storyline. I never read it again to my kids. I didn't think it was funny, sweet or cute that the author (or the publisher) thought it was OK to suggest that baby Daniel had been stolen, kidnapped, was dead or boiled in oil by pirates! To add insult to injury, the big sister speculates that she'll be locked up at Grandma's and then shipped away in a suitcase, only to be arrested by a policeman (and sent to prison) for losing her baby brother. To avoid this inevitable fate, the big sister decides to run away because she's not loved anymore. There is not one redeeming quality about this book.

I like the water colors. Lovely colors!
I like where can Daniel be because it was funny and it was colorful. I like his drawings because they're funny. I really liked the picture of the cat on the vaccumn cleaner. I also like Where Can Danial be because the words rhyme.

Minnie and Moo - Save your money
Positively the dumbest book I have ever read to my child. He loves cows, but hates this book, and so do I. It contains jokes he cannot understand, it's illustrations are lame and the premise of the story is stupid

Minnie and Moo Save the Earth just average.
After my kids and I giggled through Minnie and Moo go to the Moon, we were eager for more adventures of these hilarious cows. In Minnie and Moo Save the Earth, we were a little disappointed. In the story Minnie and Moo are lounging in the farmer's hot tub when they see a comet that appears to land on the hill nearby. It is actually an alien space craft whose passengers believe Minnie and Moo are gigantic earth inhabitants. The hilarity in the first book stemed from the cows interpretation of events. For example, the farmer they believe cannot drive the tractor without his boots and hat. Therefore, they reason if they can wear the boots and hat they too can drive the tractor (very "far side"). This book was just lacking in the same silliness. However, the illustrations were great!
