About the book:

"Would you rather... jump in the brambles for 25 cents, swallow a dead frog for 50 cents or stay all night in a creepy house for $1.00??" These are the kinds of questions that John Burningham asks his readers to think about throughout his book. The entire story is based on a little boy, illustrated in each picture, who is presented with numerous, funny scenarios that he has to consider and decide his outcome. 

Book Review: 

I love this book! This is another picture book that I found in my childhood library back home and couldn't wait to read again. I was just as excited and amused reading it now than I remember being as a kid. It presents children with the opportunity to make decisions and problem solve while using their imaginations. The choices and pictures that go along are both disgusting and hilarious for children to read. This book definitely provides plenty of creative writing opportunities as well that would encourage children to make up their own "would you rathers". I am so happy that my mom held onto all of these great picture books, and that I'm able to look back and appreciate them even more now that I'm older. Overall, I give this book a 5 out of 5.
