Product Description
Emboldened by the enthusiastic response to Belly Button (Round)—a song from her Grammy-nominated book/CD, Philadelphia Chickens—Sandra Boynton further contemplates this mesmerizing subject.
Featuring a beachful of bare-bellied hippos—including one tiny baby who can only say “Bee Bo”—the Belly Button Book is the latest quirky addition to the phenomenally successful Boynton on Board series. Every page captivates with Sandra Boynton’s inimitable illustrations and joyful rhyming text:
Soon after dark, upon the beach, we sing a hippo song, and if you’re feeling in the mood, we hope you’ll sing along: “Belly Belly Button, you’re oh so fine. Ooo, Belly Button, I’m so happy you’re mine.”
Shiny and sturdy, and featuring a great (navel-shaped, naturally) die-cut cover that offers a provocative glimpse of the merriment inside, the Belly Button Book provides enduring, giggly, read-aloud fun.

 Not impressed with this one... July 12, 2008
We own many Boynton books and this is the least favorite. The story encourages toddlers to call their belly button's a nickname instead of its actual name, which I don't agree with.
My son does likes the pictures, but does not care to listen to the actual story like he does his other books.
 Super Duper June 10, 2008
Checked ths out at the library and loved it so much we bought it!
Cute and witty. Parent's don't miss the t-shirt texts and details kids will miss...
We all call our belly buttons "Bee-Boo"s now!
My daughter's favorite!! April 14, 2008
My daughter is only 4 months old, but, for some reason, she LOVES this book. We read together all the time, and we read many different books, but this is her favorite. When I get it out she wiggles and smiles. She loves to hold the side of the book and turn the pages. When I sing the little song near the end, she makes noise and sings along. We have so much fun reading this book. I saw that some reviewers were upset that the hippos wear "bathing suits too little". For goodness sake, these are drawings of hippos! It is funny! How are the hippos supposed to show off their belly buttons in a one-piece? :) We love this book. I think it's funny for both kids and parents. The drawings are very cute.
Hippos are huge! March 8, 2008
All of Sandra Boynton's books are terrific and highly recommended. As far as the hippos being 'immodest' - come on where are you going to find clothes big enough for a hippo? I'm sure that when a child looks at pictures of a hippo (do they really wear clothes?!!!), that they are going to see more than a hippo who is half-dressed and being immodest. It's supposed to be funny - if that is what the parent sees - then maybe that is what the child will see. I think her books are wonderful, funny, and my 2 1/2 yo loves them, as well as my 10 mo old.
Another family who loves this book! February 25, 2008
My son has enjoyed this book since he was 12 months old. The silly, sing-songy rhymes entertain us all.
