Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)My son is an 11 month infant and we love to read this book. He knows who Marvin is and when I ask him to find Marvin he points him out with his finger. He seems to be calling him a Dog sometimes and maybe he's right. One night I said Goodbye Marvin and my little guy waved bye-bye to him. This is one of those few stories that niether he nor I get tired of reading and rereading. Now when I start in, "The time has come..." (the openning lines), my son looks for the book. He also recognizes the cow, lion, and elephant and makes their sounds. There really is surprisingly a lot to this book to enjoy. I have even thought about there being an existential subtext here and that the book is about time (the mysterious narrator's hand wears a watch and refers to time in the opening lines) and life's finitude (to go means death) ... Okay, woah--layers of meaing here. My point is that this really is a strange, wonderful, imaginative, and addicting little book. And hey, for once, Dr. Seuss's main character isn't Scottish. I wish it came as a board book because my little guy is pretty rough on the pages sometimes.
