Warning to all parents, these fun Disney Storybooks might cause kids to stay up later!  Pictured here is an adorable Lakeside associate’s child who just couldn’t get enough of this book.  Debbie, the mom, purchased the book at Lakeside thinking “wow my kid loves mickey and this should be a fun learning experience for him too.”  Little did she know he would enjoy it so much that he couldn’t put the book or take-along tunes away! 

The 24-page book (9-1/2″ x 8-1/8″) is packed with stories and learning activities.  The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Take-Along Tunes is an interactive book with a music player that comes with 20 preloaded tunes.  The hardcover book has the lyrics for each song, along with colorful illustrations.  The player is shaped liked Mickey, complete with feet it can stand up on.  Kids can carry the music around, or stand the player up to listen to the classic songs including “If You’re Happy and You Know It…,” “Head, Shoulders…,” as well as “Hot Dog, Hot Dog, Hot Diggity Dog,” which is featured in the show.

Enjoy and remember you have been warned!  Search kids books @ lakeside for more great books at unbelievable low prices!
