Add a CommentI adore Take Me Out of the Bathtub by Katz. But I had a terrible time trying to get the words to match the intended songs in this one. Most were complicated and didn't flow easily. I found only a couple of the songs to be laugh out loud funny like, "At The Malls" (to the tune of Deck the Halls: "At the malls, no parking spaces, Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma, can't we go home?") and "Something in My Brother's Underpants."
The illustrations are as always wonderful and funny. This book is for older elementary children (ages 8-12) who will understand and get a kick out of the slapstick humor and be able to make sense of matching the poems to the Christmas songs.
