Reviews
Dog may seem unlikely caregivers for a hysterical infant, but they have some reasonable ideas of how to mollify him and they'll likely have readers hooting and howling all along the way. "Feed him," says the dog, after a ducky toy doesn't work, and they offer the baby everything from bananas to cat chow, accompanied by a chipper refrain of moos, quacks, meows and bow- wows. But despite these and several other earnest attempts, nothing seems to halt the stream of tears from the round-headed, single-tufted tyke. Belgian artist Godon's pastels heighten the comedy by giving the howling baby one entire side of each full-bleed spread, while the well-meaning quartet huddles on the other. Finally, Duck strikes pay dirt by putting Boo-Hoo Baby down for a nap, where he stays just long enough for the animals to collapse from exhaustion (in the last spread, they slumber as the wide-eyed infant peers through the bars of the crib). Cowell (Don't Do That, Kitty Kilroy!) and Godon (the Nelly and Caesar board books) strip the familiar genre to its bare bones, and it feels almost new again. Cowell's sense of economy and pacing move the story along at a fast clip, while Godon calls attention to the situation's vaudevillian qualifies by franting the spreads on the same plane, as if they were scenes from a stage. Ages 2-6. (Oct.) --Publishers Weekly, Nov. 6, 2000 Boo-hoo Baby will not stop crying in spite of the efforts of a cow, cat, dog, all duck. Each animal tries a new trick to placate baby but only duck succeeds. Cowell's text is simple, to the point, and, best of all, full of repetition and animal sounds that deliglt toddlers. Godon's uncomplicated illustrations of the sobbing child and bewildered animals are a perfect match. Destined to be a staple in preschool programs, this title is a joy to read aloud and the large, uncluttered pictures work equally well for a large group as for one-on-one sharing. ---School Library Journal, March 2001 starred review

  • Funny book! Every kid I've read it to loves it!

    This is a funny book. I read it to my daughter to preschoolers and to first graders. Everyone I've read it to loves it. But, besides being funny it helps the child think. What would I do in this situation? Is this the correct thing to be doing? Lots of chances for discussion or just a great laugh! But, make sure you get the right version of this book! It has been made in many different languages and the British version is not the same as the USA.
