Customer Rating: Summary: Cute! Comment: This is a very cute book, my son really enjoys having the stories read to him. Although, I was under the impression that it was a story about a little boy, but its acutally a collection of stories and poems. I guess i should have done my research! but all in all, its a cute book. Customer Rating: Summary: Dirt on My Shirt Comment: A wonderful child's book!!!! I didn't know Jeff had it in him!!!! As much fun to read as it is to watch the children's faces you read it to. Customer Rating: Summary: perfect for my son Comment: Picked up this book while looking for things to get my son interested in reading. LOVE IT! He giggled and chuckled all the way through, while I had him break down the poems to make sure he was comprehending them. I am buying this book and Julianne Moore's Freckleface Strawberry for the teacher to have in her classroom. This book is great for all the little boys (or girls) in your life. The writing may not be Pulitzer, it totally gets them into reading for enjoyment (and is not bad to have to listen to!). Customer Rating: Summary: Not typical 'Foxworthy' but still creative genius! Comment: If you're expecting to read the "typical" Foxworthy book you're going to be disappointed with "Dirt on my Shirt." Instead, you'll discover that his genius is considerably greater and more extensive than you might have thought, based solely upon his "Redneck" books. I recently bought this book for my four-year-old granddaughter and it quickly has become one of her favorites! Buy this book for your children or grandchildren--you won't be disappointed! I heartily recommend it! Michael Garee Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent book Comment: I am delighted with this book, honestly I dind't expect the book to be so good and funny but it is indeed!!
I use this book to teach English and my students love the rhymes and images of the book, they really enjoy each class when the book is used.
Congratulation for such a wonderful writting style and edition!!
