Product Description
The Foot Book is a quintessentially Seussian classic. Left feet, right feet, slow feet, quick feet, even fuzzy fur feet make their way into Dr. Seuss's "wacky book of opposites." And with the fun flaps and peel-off stickers of this interactive version, yet another generation of fans will become mesmerized by the fancy footwork of this beloved, quirky author. As a tribute to the diverse and multifaceted world of feet, this big board book rejoices in all kinds of feet, especially those showcasing the concept of opposites: "His feet / Her feet," "Up feet / Down feet," "Wet foot / Dry foot." This adaptation has all the brightness and zany charm of the original, with the added delight of flaps to lift and a whole plethora of foot-happy stickers to attach and peel off the pages, again and again. (Ages 3 to 6) --Emilie Coulter --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

 I read it so many time I heard the cadence in my sleep August 19, 2010
Charles Ashbacher (Marion, Iowa United States(cashbacher@yahoo.com))
My daughter loved this book when she was young and I grew to dread it. She loved the rhyming and always chanted the closing, "Feet. Feet. Feet. Oh, how many feet you meet!" with me. I read it so many times some evenings that I would lie in bed with the equivalent of the tune going through my head. Nevertheless, the pain of repetition was more than salved by the joy on her face as she listened to me recite some of her favorite rhymes.
 Funny! April 25, 2010
Ulyyf (NYC)
This is a good, light-hearted book that's well suited both for preschoolers and early readers. Breezy, repetitive, rhyming text helps children read, and funny pairs of words (small feet, big feet, here come pig feet! his feet, her feet fuzzy fur feet!) keep everybody's interest. I can't praise this one enough :)
Don't get the board book version. It's poorly constructed, and they also leave stuff out.
"OPPOSITES" for young readers March 3, 2010
Jason Kirkfield (Rocky Mountain High)
A good step up for young children who may have previously enjoyed Curious George's Opposites.
Crazy Seussian creatures abound.
NOTE: Be sure to buy the classic hardcover (white background on front cover); apparently the board book edition (The Foot Book: Dr. Seuss's Wacky Book of Opposites) is to be avoided at all cost.
"The Foot Book" is still a hit. March 30, 2009
Margaret S. Church (CT)
This book was a favorite of my children and I ordered it to share with my 2 1/2 year old grandson as my copy is almost in shreds. I was glad that it is still available.
Good rhythm August 10, 2008
Kelly H (Austin, TX USA)
My daughter really enjoys this book, especially the parts that have some good rhythm, like "Left foot. Right foot. Feet. Feet. Feet. Oh, how many feet you meet!" You can't go wrong with Dr. Seuss!
