Summary: Priceless!
Comment: This book is so funny to read, and my 2nd grader delights in reading this book out loud! It's easy for him to decipher and he gets the funny jokes, and sarcasm and wit, it's really a scream with the illustrations as well. It reminds me of a book by Munro Leaf called "Manners Can be Fun" that is now out of print. This is a delightful book, and if your child has a sense of humor for the absurd, or a dry wit, this is for him/her.

Summary: This book is magic
Comment: I loved reading the Happy Hocky family to my both of my children. Just as my daughter was approaching school age, I saw her reading the Happy Hocky family. It was the first independent reading she did.
Yesterday evening my son, who is the same age now, got the HHF out of the bookcase... and read a bit of it to me.
So, both of them have started independent reading with the same book.
I think the "magic" is in the fact that the repetition helps kids get their heads around the reading part -- while the dry humour helps the parents come back to the book where if it were real Dick and Jane stuff, they wouldn't be able to stand it.
If your children are in the age group 3-5 I strongly suggest you get this book. It's a reading magnet.

Summary: This is one of the funniest books I've ever read!
Comment: I work for a literacy program that collects used books to be given to Head Start students. This book came through our office on a cold, dark, depressing November day. My staff and I were bored and depressed, but when we found this book and started reading it to each other, we were practically rolling on the floor laughing! This is one book we did not recycle to the little kids -- we keep it in the office and pull it out on days when nothing seems to be going right! I have a whole new staff now, and they love it too!!
