Alien alert! November 30, 2008 My little boy got given this book for CHristmas last year and loves it so much that I could probably quote it all the way through, I've read it so often. Okay, there's not a strong story but what do you expect for a cartoon book for pre-schoolers? The rhymes are cute and the pictures are great - we love it, and so do all the kids at nursery!
Hilarious and silly. November 30, 2008 This book is very funny. My five year old boy loved reading the story and looking at all the illustrations of the different underpants. A few days after reading the book I told him some pants were missing from the washing, to which he replied 'Mummy it's only a story not real!' This book is great fun and I would recommend it to children young and old.
Brilliant! November 24, 2008 My 6 year old won this in a raffle the other week, and she read it to me last night for the first time. Absolutely brilliant - I actually laughed a few times. Excellent book - and while my daughter is a bit older than the 'target' audience, she loves it as well. A very very good book. Rivals 'Room on the Broom' as a long-standing favourite!
Very funny and entertaining childrens book November 24, 2008 My 3YO loves this book, and always has to check his underpants for aliens! Now, we're crying out for a "Sharks love Socks" sequel :-)
No storyline or substance November 11, 2008 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
I bought this purely based on the strong reviews here. Thought it would be an amusing book for my 3 year old niece. Unfortunately I can't agree with the positive ratings at all - there is no storyline and so little content, it was over before it really started! I agree the illustrations are quite cute so a small toddler might enjoy looking at the pictures but I think you would have to make up your own story to make it funny or interesting. Even the rhyming phrases are quite weak. I also bought another book called Room on the Broom which is so much better.
