Book Review: Rooster's Off to See the World

I can't tell you much about this book. We checked it out from the library because my son has enjoyed other books by Eric Carle (The Grouchy Ladybug, The Very Hungry Caterpillar). During the time we had the book at our house, I tried several times to open it and read it to the little boy. The rooster goes off and finds two other animals, then three other animals, then four. I assume it keeps going like that but we barely ever made it past three. After about 3 pages of this book, he batted it out of my hands or took it and threw it to the ground. Sound like he's being fussy and just isn't in the mood for reading? No, at 13 months, he was totally happy when I picked another book- ANY other book- off the shelf to read to him. There was just something about the Rooster book that he was NOT havin' any of it!
