My five year old loves the stories

Even though I, admittedly, do not find the storylines that captivating my five year old absolutely loves them. The one about the snake in school is his personal favourite and he asks to listen to it time after time...

my 4 and 2 year olds love the 3rd and 4th stories.

too many innuendos for smarter Children

I'm not sure why penis Jokes and tickling penis were acceptable for a children's book.
