5-0 out of 5 stars Childhood Favourite!
This was actually my sister's book when we were growing up - but I remember absolutely loving it back then.Now that I have a son, I bought it to read with him. Although he is only 2, he loves the rhythm of the poems and the wacky pictures.His favourite is "Windshield Wipers".A fabulous book for parents to share with their children!

5-0 out of 5 stars my favourite book, and I'm 25
I would recommend this book to anyone.It is fun and fantastic, the illustrations are terrific, and the poems resonate well with children and adults.

5-0 out of 5 stars My Childhood Favorite
The Alligator Pie series filled my childhood with fun and whimsy.I'm pregnant now and I want to buy a whole new collection so that my child will remember "Peter was a pilot, who flew a jumbo jet, who crashed in Lake Ontario and got his bottom wet."Silly and fun. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Amazon Review is Garbage Delight
Do not listen to the modern rhetoric of this American co's review.The original illustration is what gave the book it charisma and texture.My Grade 3 class treats the original as a classic (in 2004!); one girl states it is a classic at her cottage. 5-0 out of 5 stars Garbage Delight
Growing up this was the FAVORITE book for night time reading in my house5-0 out of 5 stars A Child's Delite
I received this book as a child and unfortunately tore some of the pages out.However, most of it is still intact and I pick it up from time to time and I'm thrilled to read it.It takes me back to the days when being five WAS best and I liked strawberry soda.The book is very Canadian and Irecommend it for ANY age.It's a joy to read to yourself or your littleones.The variety of tones make the book great for bedtime or rainy days. A delight for all readers.Also check out Lee and Newfeld's other stuff,especially _Alligator Pie_! ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars funny and memorable
i owned this book as a child and although some of the poems and illustrations are really gross - there are some really funny ones which used to make my siblings and I laugh aloud! 5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, read-out-loud, kid-friendly
"Jelly Belly" is a book of modern nursery rhymes, along with some very wonderful illustrations.The rhymes generally have a great read-aloud rhythm, and are variously funny, tender, surprising.My daughter loves them and so do I.She's 2 now, and I'm sure this book would have appealed to her much earlier, and will continue to appeal for years. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars childhood favorite
This book has been my favorite since I was a child. The words flow so well when reading to myself or my children. Although there are some grafic parts, they don't take away from the poem/story being youthfull and fun. I will always read and share with others this delightful story.

5-0 out of 5 stars My favorite children's book
This has got to be one of the most fun books to read.It has a great story about a little girl who has a lion, with a big, bad roar that she unleashes on unsuspecting robbers.Although somewhat gruesome I still lovethis book.I highly enjoy reading this book to my little brother andsister who love it as well.I hihgly recommend this book as one thatshould be in any book collection. I've even bought myself a copy and I'm21.

5-0 out of 5 stars Nobody does it better
Dennis Lee is a treasure. My daughter and I devoured Alligator Pie when she was a little girl, chuckling merrily over author Lee's zany humor and vivid imagery. I have subsequently given each new Lee book to the children (and even some of the adults) I know, happy to introduce this outstanding author to those who haven't yet discovered him. Want to make your children/grandchildren/neighborhood kids laugh out loud? Get them anything Dennis Lee has written. He's truly gifted, truly tapped into the mind of the child in all of us.4-0 out of 5 stars tremendously funny
I read this book to my nephew and we giggled our way through the whole thing.The poems are quite imaginative.Some are long, others short.All very funny.My nephew is only 4, and he enjoyed picking out the things"that really wouldn't happen."He and I both loved it ... Read more
