Oh, the wonderful things Mr. Brown can do! In this "Book of Wonderful Noises," Mr. Brown struts his stuff, as he imitates everything from popping corks to horse feet ("pop pop pop pop" and "klopp klopp klopp," respectively) while inviting everyone to join him in the fun. Young readers who are still learning their sounds and letters will get a wacky workout as they follow along with the very serious-looking, squinty-eyed Mr. Brown. Whether it's eggs frying in a pan or a hippo chewing gum, the skillful Mr. Brown just keeps topping himself, with a "sizzle sizzle" or a "grum grum grum." "Mr. Brown is so smart he can even do this: he can even make a noise like a goldfish kiss!... pip!" As usual, the words and pictures of Dr. Seuss make reading (and making all sorts of funny noises) impossible to resist. Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You? will stay fresh through many a giggling reading. --Paul Hughes

 Really funny, the nieces (5 and 2.5) really get into it. August 3, 2008
This book is a quick (rhyming) runthough of the wonderful sounds Mr. Brown can do, starting with the prosaic (moo, moo, choo choo) to the obscure and absurd (a "goldfish kiss" (pip!) and a "hippopotomus chewing gum" (grum, grum, grum), those are just two examples).
This book is short, which makes it great for early readers and for toddlers learning to talk, as well as for those hurry-through-bedtime days.
It's also really interactive, so it's terrific for group storytimes, especially with more active little kids who don't just want to sit down quietly. Every page ends with the narrator asking if you can make that noise too - and trust me, they can.

Mr. Brown Can Moo!
Can You?
Dr. Seuss
This is a book of sounds. It helps beginning readers learn to sound out words. When I was working on words with my oldest daughter, I soon found the my second daughter was also reading the words.
Before you know it the children have learned all the sounds along with Mr. Brown.
I highly recommend this book for young readers.

My boys love this June 17, 2008
This is one of those books that I can't get away with just reading once a night to my kids. They ask me to reread it over and over again.
My three year-old and my 18-month old love the rhymes and the pictures. It's their current favorite. They love making the noises as I read.
I think this is a must have book for the preschool and toddler crowd. It encourages interaction and is just plain fun to read.
 A disappointment April 16, 2008

I bought this book for my 18-month old. The illustrations and colors are not too engaging to me, and my daughter is actually scared of the book! Perhaps the story is too packed with sound effects to be read aloud. It actually sounds a bit annoying. The book is now tucked away in a closet somewhere.

Review by Sherry North, Author, Because You Are My Baby
This is the rare kind of read-aloud book that transforms the child from passive listener into active participant. As Mr. Brown makes his wide variety of animal noises and other sound effects, both parent and child can't resist joining in. My 4-year-old and I enjoy competing to see who can sound more like an owl, a clock or thunder.
