story was amazing. when I read the reviews before I was curious if there were pictures. There sure are! not necessary to the beauty and fun of the story though. this will be perfect for car trips!

The last time I heard this story was on Reading Rainbow with Lavar Burton when I was around 5 years old and I never forgot it! Hearing it again brought all my childhood memories flooding back!

The story itself is a classic! You will never forget a name like Tikki Tikki Tembo ... or the rest of the characters - from the caring and exasperated younger brother to the neglectful mother and the dreamy old man.

A cautious tale, it teaches plenty of life lessons for kids and parents alike!

That moment when you find a childhood favorite!

My granddaughter Riley is 9 years old she requests to hear this story just about every time we get into the car….it has been quite a few years now and she never tires of it. The little pictures that accompany the story are very sweet too.
