Books Published in Other Countries – “The Tall Man and the Twelve Babies” Written By: Tom Niland Champion and Kilmeny Niland

      In this hilarious story, written as poetry, tells about a man and his twelve babies.  One day the man leaves the apartment and leaves the twelve babies locked on the inside.  To get inside, the man tries to crawl through the cat door, only to get stuck.  The babies love it!  They have fun crawling and playing on the man.  Eventually, the tall man talks the babies into helping pull him through the door. 

            The story is funny, but it doesn’t really have a good plot.  I would say the only thing I enjoyed about The Tall Man and the Twelve Babies is that it’s a fun read.  I wouldn’t spend the money to buy the book for my personal collection.
