A fun movement book to share with small or large groups.

2019 storytime theme: book boogie

Reviewed from a library copy.

Fun and lively, this would be great for a preschool classroom. It takes us through all the ways to bounce ("...like a bunny...hip hop, like a frog...ker-plop"). The font in different sizes adds emphasis to bouncy words and the illustrations fairly bounce off the pages as well. There are plenty of laugh-out-loud lines, too: "Bouncing with your best friend is called a bouncing double. Bouncing on the couch is called big bouncing trouble."

Fun book for storytime but the kids seemed to enjoy "Wiggle" more than this one.

The mixed media illustrations were an entertaining touch but overall the story felt forced. I enjoyed Duck for President & Click, Clack, Moo much more than this title.

Silly read aloud that encourages movement.

Nice, concise text with colorful illustrations. My 4-month-old daughter enjoyed it, but I think it would be best for kids who can act out parts as you're reading, like "C'mon! Let's bounce like a bunny!"
