A Classic! Love Love Love
This is a classic and was a favorite of my boys (and me) 30 plus years ago when they were little. Then I ran a daycare and again it was one of the most requested books by the little ones. Now I read it to my grandkids and it's still a favorite! So cute and FUN! Reading it in a Grover voice is the best! My 2 year old grandson is the latest fan of this fum book. He likes to turn the page when Grover is saying please don't turn the page! I've purchased this multiple times over the course of 30+ years and gifted it as well! Definitely one of my all-time favorite children's books!

It has a hardcover on the outside with regular style pages on the inside. The hardcover will hold up to little hands being rough with it but the pages on the inside can easily tear just like any other book. This little book brings back so memories! The quality and size of this book is great!

This one is in high demand with my preschool granddaughters. Lots of anticipation as you turn the pages… against Grover’s wishes and his humorous efforts to curtail you getting to the end of the book. The kids love it, plus it’s fun to read!

My daughter gets a lot of enjoyment from the torment that she can cause by turning the page

My only regret was choosing to read it to her whilst “doing the monster voice” (as she says) and after multiple readings in one night it’s a bit tough on the voice!

Love this book :)

La mia bimba (5 anni) lo adora, il maschio (quasi 10) non ama l’inglese quindi lo ascolta distrattamente e l’effetto sorpresa ha meno presa su di lui. Le immagini sono ottime ed interessano, incuriosiscono. Carina anche la seconda storia!
