Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

Bibliographic Information: Archambault, J and Martin, B. (1991). Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. Illus. Lois Ehlert. New York City, New York: Scholastic, Inc.

Annotation: A goofy story involving all of the letters in the alphabet and their attempt to fit in a coconut tree together. They all end up falling out but when night falls, "a" tries to beat them all to the top of the tree once again.

Genre: Picturebook

Grade Level: PK-1

Readers who will like this book: Visual readers and those becoming familiar with the alphabet.

Personal response: I enjoy this book because it is an educational book in a sneaky way. The book is full of rhymes, silly but descriptive words, and of course the entire alphabet in order. It is also a highly visually appealing book with intense colors. I rate this book at a 3.

A question you would ask before reading: Who can recite the alphabet for me?
