Review:
"Find this book, put it on the shelf, but don't expect it to stay there long, because your child will want re-reads, often. For little musicians, future drivers, or any 2-to-5-year-old who loves fun books, "Dan, the Taxi Man" is so cute, it's hard to ignore." - Cape Cod Times
"This rhythmical picture book will make a great read aloud in primary classrooms because children will easily catch onto the pattern and begin to make the sounds and read along." -International Reading Association's Reading Today
"Written as a cumulative rhyme, the narrative barrels along just like the classic yellow cab in Culotta's high-energy cartoon illustrations. Sporting a hip handlebar mustache and goatee and endowed with a personality as big as his seat-filling body, Dan motors through town and country settings like there's no tomorrow. Noisy fun, with a strong beat and a narrative pattern that even younger audiences will have no trouble catching." - Kirkus Review

This hepcat musical riff on “This Is the House That Jack Built” stars Dan the Taxi Man, who picks up the five members of a band and delivers them to the Rockin’ Joint for a show. Maureen and her tambourine, Tyrone with his saxophone, Star with her electric guitar, Claire with a rattly snare, and Ace with his upright bass each crowd into Dan’s taxi. With the addition of each player, the rhymes are cumulatively repeated: “Climb inside while you still can / with Dan, / Beep! Beep! / the Taxi Man.” The font styles and sizes should generate appropriate instrument noises from readers; for example, Star’s “Whee, wazzle, wah”; Tyrone’s “Squeeba-dee dee”; and, of course, Dan’s ever-honking horn. The brightly colored, energetic illustrations carry out the mod motif with mohawk hair, dreads, an afro, pierced ears, and Dan’s red handlebar mustache. As you’d expect, a rockin’ good time. Preschool-Grade 2. --Julie Cummins
