Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The third in Accord Publishing's irresistible Eyeball Animation® series of books takes us deep below the sea for a fish-eyed view of the ocean unlike any seen before.

A wild pair of eyeballs built into this high quality hardcover picture book bounce up and down and all around like a dinghy in rough waters. A glossary of the diverse sea life showcased throughout the story makes it a great teaching tool, as well!

William Boniface relays the tale of Max the Minnow in charming and witty verse that is as much of a treat for adults to read as for children to hear. Through his bold and colorful style, Don Sullivan's wildly humorous illustrations bring the underwater world of Max and his friends to vivid life.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Wild Wiggly Googly Fun
I would give this book five stars, but the wiggly eyes prevent this book from lining up on a bookcase.

I disagree with the reviewer that said that the narrative in this book was poor. It's just fine. My two year old son enjoyed it tremendously and it is a fun read aloud.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Story unsuitable
The rolling eyes are cute but the story is expressed in such a complicated way that nobody understands what the heck is going on. Bravo for the drawing and the eyes but boooooooo for the text !



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Kids Love It!
I bought this book for my 2 grandsons, age 3 and 1, and they both love it. The book is a very well made board book for the little one and the moving "eyes" fascinate them both. I first saw the book in a doctor's office and laughed, I thought it was so funny. I wrote down the publisher and ordered it on-line with another companion book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great little book
Our grandchildren ages 4 & 2 are coming to visit & this will be a fun book to read with them.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great fun and illustrations to die for
To start off, though, I have to say that you just can't read these books lying down in bed with your child. The eyes roll up (they're weighted) and all you get is the "whites" of the eyes.
Having said that, if you sit up with your kid and read, this is a great series of books to get into. I like to barely wiggle the book while reading so the eyes move about in silly ways.
The rhymes are great and engaging. The storyline is always cute. In this book in particular the storyline has a ... Read More
