Description
If you know a little one who likes dancing this is the book. Bright and happy pictures show a variety of children playing hide and seek in a make-believe jungle, then shaking with a bear, stomping with an elephant, flapping with a vulture and so on. Each animal has its own version of the 'boogie-woogie' song. --Northern EchoNot only does this book reinforce movement, rhyming words, and knowledge of jungle animals, but the text and illustrations act as clues to help your child figure out which animal is coming on the next page. The illustrations are bright and colorful, and they clearly show a diverse group of children playing in the jungle, which encourages children to be friends with everyone. --The Old Schoolhouse MagazineThe vibrant, fun illustrations in this book are packed full of jungle animals to find and count. The rhyme bounces along introducing a colorful collection of intriguing animals through lively word play and repetition. A musical score is included in the book. --Nursery Education Stella Blackstone has written many best-selling titles for Barefoot Books, including the popular Bear and Cleo series, An Island in the Sun (1-84148-197-4), Secret Seahorse (1-84148-876-3) and Who Are You, Baby Kangaroo?
