This book gives the message to ignore warning signs and then calls the reader a chicken for following the rules. Then they turn into a chicken and eventually press another button to stop the change. It is a cute book, but I don't like how it teaches kids to ignore the rules.

My son loved the other book in the series and used to have me read it over and over again. He's a bit older now but flapping the book and getting to do barn animal noise was still a win. Cute series, but definitely for toddlers. Thanks to NetGalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review!

Very cute book. My 3 year old son loved it due to its interactive components! I thought the story was a bit weird personally but perfect for kids!

We had fun with this followup to Don't Push the Button. You can't go wrong with farm themed books.

I found this a lot less exciting for the kids than the original, but the addition of the cute farm animals was nice.

Thank you NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This picture book was just as fun as the others in the series. I loved the farm aspect of the story.

My daughter is a hug fan of the don't push the button series. This was no different my daughters favorite farm animals is a chicken. This made her laugh so hard and she as asked me to read several times. We highly enjoyed this book and I recommend it to any parent looking to have fun while reading with their children.

What a fun interactive bedtime book for young kiddos! My son loves all things farm and animals so this book was a win. I wish there was more !!

My only criticism is the book name, seems like it should be called don’t open the gate.

It was cute. It asked you to interact as different animals and make different animals. It was fun watching him flap and bock like a chicken.

This is such a cute interactive picture book that engages little listeners and gets their imaginative little cogs working. My 6 YR OLD daughter LOVES these books. They never fail to make her giggle and ask to have it read to her over and over again.

Bill Cotter writes the best storytime books, hands down! They are interactive and an absolute delight for children. Highly recommend all of his Don't Push the Button books!

Yay for another Don't Push the Button book! These interactive books are SO FUN, especially for kiddos who have a hard time sitting through a story.

I love how interactive every book in this series is! Even young kids who aren't able to pay attention for very long, will have a longer attention span for this book because they will be busy doing the fun activities on each page. I loved how silly the monster is and my 4 year old sister asked if we could read it again as soon as we were done!

One of those books that teach the very young that books are not static things to be stared at, but things to be engaged with and that are able to talk to you. This one has a monster welcoming us to the farm, but when he breaks in – well, he wanted us to open the gate we're not allowed to open – he turns into something else. And even though he asks ridiculous things of us, as these books have to do, things just get worse.

This is really basic, and it's part of a franchise I didn't know anything about, and it has much less for us to do than many similar books, with their 'make this noise', 'make that motion', 'do this to the page' kind of ideas, but you know what? It was still fine. It was silly, childish inanity, and it was drawn with no subtlety, and it was still really likeable. I mean, I thought that without a farmyard of kids making the noises this asked of us, so I'm really not getting the full experience of someone forced to endure this instead, but I'd give it four stars. And leave the painful experience of helping kids interact with it to other people...

This book is perfect for a story time at the library or in the class room. It could work well as a bedtime story to get those last minute wiggles/sillies out. The story is very simple but kids will enjoy participating and dancing around while making animal noises.

A fun twist on the original with different types of movements and adding animal noises, but I'm not sure it was quite as silly as the original.

This silly book takes place on a farm as the title suggests. A monster goes to a farm and becomes a chicken. He asks the reader to do various things to help him turn back into a monster like shake the book or make animal noises. While kids are sure to enjoy the reading experience due to these instructions, the art and writing didn't have anything special other than the silly fourth-wall breaking.

My son and I love this mischievous purple monster. The super fun interactive push the button books never fail to engage him and make him laugh and that makes my momma heart happy. He is 5 years old and we read every night and will be purchasing this book when it comes out to add to our collection.

My son loves the first "Don't Push the Button" book and this one was a hit as well. He thought this book was so funny and laughed out loud multiple times. That's 5* for me :)
