Add a CommentVery entertaining book. Kids liked it a lot
Eric Litwin is a genius! Litwin's story is not only entertaining and interactive, but also truly shows how awesome it is to share!
Another great story time book from Eric Litwin. Fantastic summertime read, who doesn't like ice cream?? Large pictures work well for a group read, and the repeated song just begs to become a group sing-a-long. This is going on my favourites list for sure.
Short rhyming story with great pictures
Such a "groovy" read-aloud book for the preschool crowd! The rhymes read like song lyrics, and are totally danceable for a sing-along storytime. Fits fabulously with a sharing theme!
Amazingly fun picture book! A great read-aloud.
Great book for a sharing storytime! The children will love singing along.
What a great , fun book to share with preschoolers in storytime. The rhythm and rhyme in this book leads to wonderful prediction for the kids! The song also adds to participation. Eric Litwin is one of my favorite authors and this book is a winner! Groovy Joe,s message of sharing " It's Awesome to Share" is a great reminder for young ones!
