A LOT OF FUN. GREAT ILLUSTRATIONS.

Okay, the grinning sheep on the cover caught my attention (Reminds me of my grandson when he's up to something.... )

We all laugh or groan at April 1st jokes. When I saw "Barnyard Fun" the Vine list I thought this is a clever way to introduce my grandson to April Fool's Day... In "Barnyard Fun" Maureen Wright gives young readers simple, funny lines - some that rhyme.  My grandson smiles at rhymes - especially when his mother is the reader.

When Sheep discovers it's April 1st (April Fools Day) he decides to have a bit of fun with Rooster, Dog, Pig and Cow.  Duck has his own bit of fun laughing at it all. When Horse sees what's going on he has a little fun of his own and gets the last laugh.

The rhymes are amusing and the illustrations are adorably funny.

Highly Recommended.

Cute story.  Fantastic artwork.  I'm not sure if I enjoy the story or pictures more.  This is a fun book to read, and the kids enjoy it, too.

Beautiful illustrations.  After mom and dad read, "Ready one....ready two....ready three....." my little one loves to yell out, "GO!"  A fun, fun book.

The book is fun and with a good message. The text could use some literary editing but it is good. There are gorgeous illustrations that set this book apart in the kid book library. We are all mesmerized my colors and figures. It's a great gift for any kid in your life. In fact, I bought one for my husband because he likes the artist.

I especially love the illustrations. I found the stories fun, educational and engaging.  I even bought a copy for my friend's daughter and SHE bought a copy for HER friend's daughter.  It's a good book.

A large varied font accompanying great illustrations makes this book very appealing to the young child in your life. The question is asked by one child to a group of others if they have "ever seen a moose - a long-leggy moose - a branchy-antler, dinner-diving, bulgy-nose, moose". The answer of course, is "No!" but they really want to so the search is on.

The fun part of this book is that young children will enjoy pointing the moose out to you when the children in the book cannot see it! It is cleverly disguised but still able to be spotted. First the children look in the woods then it's into the swamp. This is followed by looking in the bushes and up on the hill. Wait a minute! What's that noise? Will the children find what they are looking for?

A fun book that is well worth reading.

I loved the bright, busy drawings in this book, and can see kids getting hours of fun trying to find the different members of the Cute family in the 12 double page scenes that it includes. The book also includes a simple family story around the scenes, so kids can feel more involved with the characters they are searching for.

Recommended for entertaining the kids when you need something fun to keep them occupied for lengthy periods, for example on long journeys or in waiting rooms. I viewed the Kindle version on my iPad, which is plenty big enough to view the scenes as double page spreads. (I think phone screens would be too small to use the book as intended.)

This was a delightful book full of fantastical fairy illustrations.  I wished as I read it that I had a child here to share it with me.  I know a couple who are going to love it.

A child (or not so grown-up adult) would find this very amusing.  It has stories about Chimney Fairies, Blue Bottle Fairies, Mud Puddle Fairies, Sock Fairies,  even Book Fairies, and many others.  It's a very fun book and the author has a sequel in the works.

This is a great picture book that is very informative, but also a lot of fun.  The illustrations are exceptional and really bring the book to life.  The variation of text font and size is a nice perk that helps the reader add voice and expression. This is a fun story that I think would be effective in a preschool, Kindergarten or first grade class.  Some kids will enjoy the fun aspect of the "dinosaurs going dancing," and others will really get into the facts about dinosaurs and different types of dances.  It's a good one - add it to your list!
