This book is a Caldecott medal winner. I really did not find the book very interesting. I think children would get bored reading or listening to the story. There was repetition in the book. However, the colorful pictures would captivate their interest.
There was not anything in particular that influenced my reaction or response to this book. Because of the repetition in the story, the book could be compared to other stories such as, There Was an Old Woman Who Swallowed a Fly. The repetition allows for the children to join in with the reader.
Children's literature can teach you many things. This story teaches children that you can always make something out of nothing over and over again.
