From School Library Journal
PreSAThis cheerful, clever poem about a woman obsessed with washing things of all kinds and hanging them out on her endless clothesline should elicit plenty of giggles from preschoolers. Mrs. McNosh begins with the conventional dresses, underwear, shirts, and so forth, but soon moves on to such items as the newspaper, the dog, the telephone, a Christmas wreath, grandpa's dentures, two bats, and finally herself, suspended in a lounge chair. A brisk meter, bouncy rhythm, and frequent repetition make the book perfect for reading aloud. Splashy double-page spreads of cartoons in bright colors show a vigorous, smiling washerwoman scrubbing everything in a barrel of bubbly water and clothespinning her strange laundry to the line. A storytime must.APatricia Pearl Dole, formerly at First Presbyterian School, Martinsville, VA

One of the funniest stories ever!,
By Nomorerain "mamaezinha" (CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mrs. Mcnosh Hangs Up Her Wash (Hardcover)
This book is great for preschoolers (and myself) thru 2nd graders. If you like a funny rhymming story, this is the book!The verses in this book are surprisingly lighthearted and funny; perfect for read-alouds! Mrs. McNosh does her wash and HANGS EVERY VERSE ON THE CLOTHESLINE THROUGHOUT THE STORY! Paired with Ms. Wescott bubbly drawings, you'll laugh while you read and laugh after you've read, then laugh some more before you reread!

Teacher Recommended, Mother Approved!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mrs. Mcnosh Hangs Up Her Wash (Hardcover)
When my son's teacher told me how much he enjoyed this book, I decided to buy it and haven't regretted it. It is filled with rhyming sentences and silly situations, and my kids love to see and read about the funny things Mrs. McNosh does on her laundry day.

A Colorful Silly Book Kids Will Love to Read,
By
This review is from: Mrs. Mcnosh Hangs Up Her Wash (Hardcover)
This colorfully illustrated book is full of silly rhymes. Mrs. McNosh begins by doing the laundry, but becomes increasingly silly as she hangs more than just shirts and socks up on the line to dry. Soon ironing boards and the turkey dinner are drying in the breeze. The silly story will keep children giggling all the way through. The only drawback - - I didn't care for their choice of typeface, but that's just the designer in me talking!
