Hush Little Turtle Reviews


  • Jj

    I really did enjoy this book--the story and the illustrations, but the format is problematic. It is a board book, but it should be a picture book. There is way too much going on in the story and in terms of words and art for a board book format and audience. Merely packaging a picture book in a board book format does not a board book make.

    You can tell it's a translated book but still a cute story. I loved the illustrations and the black background.

  • Miri Gifford

    Cuuuute. The illustration style is much like I Feel a Foot!, which I also loved. And the story (Turtle's friends help him fall asleep) is really fun.

  • Rachael

    I think something was lost in translation here- this book doesn't make sense
