I loved Lyle growing up, although the sequel isn't quite as good as "The House on East 88th Street". I got the feeling while rereading this one that this story may not teach the best lesson, but I would still want to read it to my children.

This book is so funny. I thought this book was perfect for children- based on humour. The children can go into how the animals babies are born. The illustrations are simple and cute also very creative. I enjoyed this book so much!

Wordless tale of a man walking along with a bird on his head, seeking some groceries and an egg. Illustrations are surprising, help direct the story but allow for creativity. Good use of color and shadow. Several fold out pages.
