Hop on Pop Book & CD (Beginner Books Read-Along Book & Audio)

For anyone who has grown up with Dr. Seuss, this is one of the classics and one that often seems to get missed out of sets so seems to be a little bit rarer for some reason. It is particularly appropriate for the younger Seuss fans (not sure I can justify counting myself in that list any longer, but I still love the book).

thankyou. Arrived well.

This is a great book for young people who are just starting to read. Dr. Seuss wrote fantastic books for young children who are of a novice reading level. The style of writing consists a limited vocabulary well understood by most beginners and a very clever repititive/poetic pattern which appeals to young readers. It is amazing that a complete book could be written using so few words. Hop on Pop is very good for those who do not know many words but know a few and would like to learn more.

Lovely little book, sure 5yr old will read enthusiastically

There is something wonderful that happens when your child first picks up a Dr Seuss book. They love them and the adults find them funny too. Great illustrations and the poetry of the words are very good for teaching kids to read without them even knowing it. "Mouse on House, House on Mouse" - they laugh when they see the house on top of the mouse.

I loved this book as a child and it is one of the earliest books I remember well (end of the '60s!), so it was an obvious choice when looking for a book for a very small person! Delivery from Courtyard Books was really quick, thank you John!

Dr Seuss is always a hit with kids, even very little ones. This doesn't really have a story so is more suitable for younger children who can look at the crazy pictures and enjoy parents making weird voices!

Stop! You must not hop on pop! But you must buy this book if you love a giggle with your kids. Makes learning to read so much fun, a real classic.

Wir haben dieses Buch seit dem er 10 Monaten alt wahr. Wir lesen dieses Buch immer noch gerne. Wir sind jetzt aber schon 17 Monaten.

My wife purchased this book for our Kindergartener after she (my daughter) had requested it. She had seen it in her school library and was very excited to show us how funny the idea of "hopping on pop" (on me!!) was and that she could read some of the words. After we got it, she found that she was able to read the whole thing all the way through. She was so surprised and proud of herself! If you want to build confidence in your child and develop a love for reading-this is a great book. The reason this is so great for an early reader is pretty genius! The book starts off easy enough, with a couple of rhyming phrases per page (like; HOP ON POP, etc.). As the story moves on, the rhyming words are replaced (sometimes only by changing out a letter-as in H-A-T to C-A-T). While a simple idea, it provides a great learning and reinforcement tool for your child that is twofold: (1) your child learns new words by "building" on a previously known word by having to change the initial sound to match the new letter on the rhyming word, and (2) by showing them the importance of letters and their placement in a word to change its sound. The book is never overly difficult, but rather, perfectly paced for an emerging or first time reader. And of course, true to Dr. Seuss fashion, the artwork is engaging, wonderful and funny all at the same time. This is by far, my daughter's favorite book at the moment and she won't hesitate to offer to "read the whole book" to anyone who is willing to listen! She is developing a real love of reading from this. If you are a "pop" or know of one with a new reader, this classic is just the ticket! Definitely a winner for our family.

It's a really good book for kids who are learning to read. Simple 3-4 letter words with funny visuals. Dr. Suess never disappoints

A great book for toddlers. My 3 year old loves it. And it's a nice way to learn rhyming words.

Gotta love Dr. Seuss!
