Amazon.com Review:
The gentle rhyming and gorgeous, tissue-paper collageillustrations in this classic picture book make it a dog-earedfavorite on many children's bookshelves. On each page, we meet a newanimal who nudges us onward to discover which creature will show upnext: "Blue Horse, Blue Horse, What do you see? I see a greenfrog looking at me." This pattern is repeated over and over,until the pre-reader can chime in with the reader, easily predictingthe next rhyme. One thing readers might not predict, however, is justwhat kinds of funny characters will make an appearance at thedenouement! Children on the verge of reading learn best with plenty ofidentifiable images and rhythmic repetition. Eric Carle's good-humoredstyle and colorful, bold illustrations (like those in The Very HungryCaterpillar, The Grouchy Ladybug,and Have You Seen MyCat?) have earned him a prominent place in the children's bookhall of fame.(Baby to Preschool) --Emilie Coulter

- Best bear book ever
Brown Bear, Brown Bear is a classic for babies and toddlers. They may go through more than one copy. It's the first book that they memorize and that's the first step in beginning to read.
I buy it often for young children.

- Brown Bear's back!
I remember reading this charming story to my own kids and also to my preschool class. Now it's been reissued inboard book format, artistically illustrated, and every bit as enjoyable. This is a perfect book for teaching color and animal names, in a catchy rhyming format. Each page foretells what the animal and color will be on the next. Recommended for reading to babies and for beginning readers to tackle on their own.

- Repetitive, but that's the idea. Young kiddos, remember?
There are days when I am just thoroughly annoyed by this book.
And yet it remains a classic, and I grudgingly agree.
How can anyone not love the awesome repetitive rhymes and varying colors and animals? And how can you not get chills at how these animals are all staring at each other?
The original of interactive books and still probably the best.
