Beginning readers will learn proper manners with Alfie as his mommy teaches him to say the magic words. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Such a fun book!We've had this one for a while, and we read it so often that it's getting tattered. This book is a delight. It is funny, and the illustrations are darling, and the words are not too hard. We can't call it "reading" anymore, because we've all memorized the book. It is an adorable book and Level 1 is the perfect spot for this -- it is just past a phonics reader. Rating: - May I Please Have a Cookie?I bought this at my son's preschool book fair when he was 4 1/2. While he loved it, I found my daughter, then 2 1/2, REALLY loved it and it immediately became a favorite. We have read it over and over, always enjoying it and quoting from the book (especially when I make cookies!). My daughter never fails to laugh when Alfie's mustache falls off. A truly fabulous book with wonderful illustrations that I don't mind reading again and again. Unfortunately, I left my copy on the airplane this summer ...

My 4-year-old has on several occasions acted out the entire story (right down to being a "kooky inspektor" and making his own cookies out of paper), and my 5-year-old quotes the whole thing. This is definitely one of those books that I've recommended to all of my friends for their children. Rating: - Preschool Class Learns PLEASE8 Children Under 5 all give this book two hands up! We love the sweet illustrations and the antics of this cookie lover. Learning to say please isn't as easy for some animals as it is for us kids. Rating: - The mom in this story is one smart cookie, herself, teaching independenceI love this book because the mom is smart. She knows that if she explains everything to her little alligator, he won't really learn. So she allows him to go through a tough time while he figures out for himself the right thing to do. In the end she helps him prove to himself that he is as smart as she knows he is. |
