Mary wore her red dress, and Henry wore his green sneakers Book

This is a very simple book of a song (and props to the author for bothering to include the music in the back! I hate it when they don't, and then I can't figure out how to sing the song. My edition didn't come with the CD) which those of us who listen to Wee Sing might recognize. This is a very simple "zipper" song - you can "zip" new words in and out as needed. $NAME wore his/her $COLOR $CLOTHING all day long! As such, it's bound to be popular among small children.

I have two small complaints about the book. First, I personally don't find it that interesting as an adult. I'm putting this right away into my giveaway pile and it'll go to my niece's kindergarten class on her birthday. (I like to give books to the class on their birthdays, I think it's better for everybody than cupcakes and candy.) Just because *I* do not like it doesn't mean much - I *know* small children like it. I haven't rated it down because of this, I just found it a little boring for me. If you're the sort of parent whose kids want books read over and over and over again, go read this book before you buy it. Make sure it won't bore YOU.

Second, I don't like that the book is written in ALL CAPS. Aside from the fact that this is harder to read, when I read to my young niece (who is 4), I put my finger under the lines as an example. I can picture many teachers using this book in the classroom, pointing out words as an example. Children young enough for books like this really need to see them written in a normal way, not in capital letters. So I took a star off for that. It's not a HUGE problem, but it's one that could've been easily remedied by typing normally.
