Oh, the wonderful sounds 

Mr. Brown can do!

He can sound like a cow.

He can sound like a bee.

Mr. Brown can BUZZ

How about you?

He can sound like a cork...

POP POP POP POP

He can sound like horse feet...

KLOPP KLOPP KLOPP

He can sound 

like a roster...

COCK A DOODLE DOO

He can sound 

like an owl...

He can sound

KNOCK KNOCK

BOOM BOOM BOOM

Mr. Brown is a wonder.

BOOM BOOM BOOM

Mr. Brown makes thunder!

He makes lightning

SPLATT SPLATT SPLATT

And it's very, very hard

to make a noise like that!

Mr. Brown can 

whisper whisper

...very soft 

very high...

like the soft, 

soft whisper

of a butterfly

Maybe YOU can, too 

I think you ought to try.

Oh, the wonderful sounds 

Mr. Brown can do.

Why don't you try

to do them, too?

Dr. Seuss's (which is pronounced like it rimes with voice apparently) "Mr. Brown can MOO! Can you?"

The bus's favourite book and, I hope at least, the first of a life long love affair with books.

So my life right now is reading about Mr. Brown and how you must not "Hop on Pop", crusty clothes and lots of love.

Oh and we went sliding with hubby's godchild and niece yesterday and we are now a nice shade of bluegreenyellow.
