Summary: The Flea's Sneeze
Review: A wonderful repetitive story, pre-school age children love this delightful book. The illustrations are beautifully done in this fun filled book.This is a great book for children who are learning to read. The repetition will allow them to follow and read the story easily.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book!
Review: Any book that can make my three year old grand-daughter
laugh out loud deserves a five star rating. It was a delightful story, very easy to read. It is a favorite of ours, that will be read again and again.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Entertaining Read Aloud
Review: Entertaining and funny book. Nicely illustrated. Good for reading aloud, particularly if you include sounds (snoring, sneezing). My 3 yr old daughter really enjoys this one. She now recites it from memory.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great artwork, contrived story
Review: I love love love the illustrations of this book. They're so full of colour, movement and personality. Lots of kid appeal! However, I feel that the artwork is its strongest point. While I appreciated the value in the repetition and the rhyming, I found the story and the rhyme itself very contrived. I felt as if the author was trying too hard to get the rhyme to fit neatly and compactly into the almost 30 pages that the story rests on.

That said, my 3 year old daughter loves this book and whenever she asks me to read it, I have to do so several times before I manage to redirect her attention towards a different book. She laughs hysterically whenever we get to the part where the flea sneezes. That reaction must count for something and probably has more merit than the opinion of her cranky mommy.

Summary: Great fun! Gives your child the giggles!
Review: Our son who is now three has loved this book since he was 18 months old. He still just giggles when the flea sneezes. It's a great book for children to point out the animals and to play along with. It also is an easy book to read aloud inserting inflections in your voice. You and your child(ren) will love this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Flea's Sneeze
Review: The Flea's Sneeze is a beautifully illustrated story of a flea living on a farm. The story is centered around the flea catching a cold and sneezing unexpectedly. The story is filled with predictable and repeptitious text. The illustration was created by using acrylics on Strathmore board. This media creates a very soft scene for the farm animals. The illustrations are a perfect fit for the text. Overall, this story will delight and engage your children in the power of literature.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun reading and great illustrations!
Review: This is a beautiful picture book with a fun, rhyming story, and super illustrations! The poor flea has a cold and he sounds stuffy when he talks ("Does eddybody hab a tissue for be?"). He sniffles, sneezes, and wakes up the whole barn! There are lots of animal sounds to read, too, which little ones usually love. Great fun for your 3-6 year-old!

Summary: Tumble-down wonderful
Review: This is one of the best children's books we've read. Our 3 year old loves the repetition and after a couple of readings, has memorized the entire book. We have to read it every night before bed. It is a wonderful story, and the illustrations are fabulous. A must have for your child's library.
