Product Description
Yucky music, great big feet. Ladies smelling way too sweet. Look at knees and stand in line. Llama Llama starts to whine. Does any child like to go shopping? Not Llama Llama! But Mama can’t leave Llama at home, so off they go to Shop-O-Rama. Lots of aisles. Long lines. Mama is too busy to notice that Llama Llama is getting m-a-d! And before he knows it, he’s having a full-out tantrum! Mama quickly calms him down, but she also realizes that they need to make shopping more fun for both of them. Parents and children are sure to recognize themselves in this fun-to-read follow-up to the popular Llama Llama Red Pajama.

 Rutgers University Project on Economics and Children
Llama llama, no different from other kids his age, would rather continue playing than head off with Mama to the Shop-O-Rama. Mama probably feels much the same way, but the weekly groceries and errands need to get done. Llama llama grows progressively more agitated during the shopping expedition, resulting in a tantrum that sends the shopping cart contents scattering throughout the aisle. Clever mama finds a way to calm her son and finish buying what they need at the supermarket. The book, with marvelous illustrations that clearly express Llama llama's growing frustration, can be used to teach young children about wants and needs, goods, and markets. Also essential is the message that parents can find grocery shopping just as tedious as their little ones.

 Llama Mad at Mama
As an educator I liked the way this book rhymes since it is a neat way for children to pick up on the different sounds that words make. I was a little disappointed with the items being thrown out of the buggy. I thought that was a little extreme and might possibly give little minds bad ideas. Also, the story was drawn out a bit and got a little boring. The first Llama book was excellent so I was expecting the same from this one. I am still glad I purchased it though and will use the negative parts to demonstrate what my little one should NEVER do!

 It Will Make You Laugh
Every Mom knows how frustrating shopping can be with little ones. Llama Llama mad at Mama tells the shopping experience from a child's point of view, which is no picnic for them either.
In a rhyming story, the tale is told about a Mama that takes her little llama Shopping who would rather stay home and play. I found myself laughing out loud at the little llama's whining.
Great story and one that anyone can relate to, that has ever had to take her little ones shopping. Enjoyable, laughable story for children too. They will love the rhyme and the colorful illustrations.

My 2 year old loves this! ( sstokman )
My 2 year old daughter loves this book! We just got it at the library and we read it over and over again! It presents a very real situation- the kiddo who doesn't want to go shopping with mama- for kids and parents and provides a happy solution/ending. Not only is the rhyming fun and the pictures great but both my daughter and I connect with the story!
