rumble in the jungle {what we're reading}

My beautiful boy loves animals.

I think you'd be hard pushed to find a toddler that doesn't.

He loves identifying them,

making their noises

and generally doing impressions of them.

Animals in books are a big hit with him

and with me too it has to be said.

Rumble in the Jungle is a bright and colourful book

with fantastic cartoon images of lots of different animals.

The pictures really are great,

really sweet, funny and engaging.

And accompanying each animal picture

is a short poem all about them.

Each poem is simple and really memorable,

and many are quite comical too.

I really do think we owe the little man's keen knowledge of animals to this book

and to it's counterparts The Commotion in the Ocean ,

Mad About Minibeasts and Farmyard Hullabaloo .

All these books are really popular in this house,

they are fun, lively books to share together,

the beautiful boy loves to look through them alone,

and they can be dipped into quickly, just for a poem or two.

They really are a great addition to our bookshelf.
