I love the interactive aspect of the book. My 1 1/2 year old that I baby-sit has started imitating the sounds when I make them. She moos like a pro.

For: animal fans; readers looking for an interactive book with sound effects.

Possible red flags: silliness and nonsense.

After reading Mr. Brown Can Moo for the 105th time today, I deemed it Worthy of a goodreads (my wannabe blog) review. In the time I have spent reading Mr. Brown, I could have read War and Peace.

Caleb loves Mr. Brown. In typical boy style he loves sounds (not real good about putting them together into words, but he can boom right along with Brown).

This book is significant because it has impacted my life on various levels. In addition to saving me from War and Peace, it allowed me once again to enjoy Dr. Seuss. In elementary school I appointed myself head of the library club. I was a nerd (I was also founder of the aforementioned club). During recess, we shelved. Shelving Dr. Seuss is frustrating, all of the books were the same size and shape and required alphabetical acrobatics (okay, not really, but they were annoying). But shelving Mr. Brown opened me up to the wonders of THE FOOT BOOK and the Lorax. This book, however, is far and away my favorite and most palatable of Seuss's books.

(Speaking of palatable, Caleb ate the spine off of our board book-- in a 'rash and pleasure loving moment' he gave his favorite book a taste.)

Also, more significant yet, this little gem has deconstructed the way I look at sounds. When it rains (which has been often recently) I no longer think pitter pitter pat, but "dibble, dibble, dop; dibble, dibble, dibble, dibble, dop dop dop."

Unworthy of note: Mr. Brown reminds me of Mr. Noodle from Sesame Street.

Dr. Seuss is obviously the master, but this book is a great board book for little ones, because they think Mommy or Daddy making silly noises is pretty much the best.

You cant believe how much I laughed at this😂

My son apparently sleeps with this book at daycare. Enough said.
