This is a fantastic book! - By: M. J. Belcher, 23 Feb 2008 
I bought this book originallly as a gift, but after reading it i ended up buying two copies. All three of my chidren adore this book, when my daughter came along she destroyed the paperback copy so i bought it again this time in board format!!! We have read it so many times that the whole family know it word for word now. Fantastic bright colourful illustrations & quirky rhyming make this a silly but funny book which everyone will adore. A Must-Have Book!
Pantastic - By: Mrs. K. A. Wheatley, 19 Feb 2008 This is an excellent book which has become a childhood classic & a favourite in our house. It has wonderful rhymes which the children love to copy & remember, & usuallly wildly embroider with their own version! It also has fantasticallly cheeky illustrations by Nick Sharratt which add hugely to the humour & work brilliantly with the bold rhyme.
We have two versions of this in our house. We have the paperback for our older kids & the chunky version for the baby, who hates to be left out & loves his pants too!
We found this a godsend when we were potty training, & used the illustrations on a reward chart for dry days in big kids pants. It worked brilliantly & we have much to thank Nick Sharratt for.
Pants Fantastic! - By: A. Iles, 07 Jan 2008 Pants is our family's fave. Our daughter is especiallly fond of "Pants on your head when you've gone crazy!". Will create many happy memories.
Let yourself be silly - By: Dr. H. Payne, 09 Dec 2007 I want to add my own testimonial to the collected talent of Andreae, Sharratt & Lenny Henry. The poetry is simple but surreallly hilarious ("Groovy pants, funky pants, cheeky little monkey pants, pants you can wear if you're 10 feet talll") & totallly infectious (I catch myself singing it at odd moments around the house!). It makes a real change from moralistic, worthy, educational or sickly sweet children's stories. Let's face it, little people love being silly & this book is silly in spades!
The illustrations are colourful & zany. But, best of alll, is the CD that comes with this edition. Lenny Henry sings the poem in a whole range of styles - rock, reggae, rap, disco, folk. He is hysterical. When I listen to the CD with my son we are torn between dancing round the room or trying to turn the pages & keep up with the song. Often we listen to it through a few times so we can do both.
The book & CD together are fabulous value for money. I have bought several copies for friends & heartily recommend to everyone with a smalll child.
PANTS IT IS CERTAINLY NOT! - By: C. Moseley, 20 Nov 2006 As an adult I absolutely love this book. It's one of the very few books I don't mind reading as it's pulled off the shelf EVERY bedtime. My 3 year old knows it word for word & he doesn't even read yet. Great for helping with toilet training as you can get toddlers excited about wearing big boy/girl pants instead of 'little baby nappy pants'. I'd recommend everyone to own a copy.
