Summary: a family favorite
Comment: Hop On Pop was always a favorite of my three children for the rhymes , theme and pictures. Now that my children are grown, I continue to delight other children with the purchase of this book. There is something about it that makes them clamor to hear it over and over and over again.

Summary: Big thumbs-up from our 16-month-old girls
Comment: Our 16-month-old twin girls have a vocabulary of four words: Ma-ma, Da-da, ba-ba (bottle), and "Pop!" That's what they say when they see this book come out for their bedtime story. They love the pictures and the sound of the words. They look and listen with rapturous interest, and often scream like banshees at the end until I read the book a second time.
The book is fun for parents, too. It's a disconnected, almost surreal series of vignettes. The ever-popular segment featuring the flying Mr. Brown is longer than most, and the recurring character of Pup provides a hint of continuity. Not that kids will care about any of this; it's just a fun ride with the inimitable Dr. Seuss.
Suggested follow-up: "Ten Apples Up On Top" (again by Dr. S), which is our girls' second-favorite book.

Summary: Classic early reader
Comment: Let's note first that this book isn't actually intended as a readaloud book, nor is it intended for children much younger than the age of six.
The format of the book reflects this. It's a bit long for toddlers (who aren't known for having great attention spans), and the different spreads are disconnected - when a kid is at the age where they struggle to read "All, Ball, We All Play Ball", the last thing they need to worry about is what they read two pages before!
Can it be used as a readaloud? No doubt! But don't be disappointed if it doesn't work for you and your kid that way.
That said, this is a wonderful early reader. Simple rhyming text, with the main words in large print at the top of the page; and really funny illustrations.
I really suggest this one.

Summary: Great for very young children
Comment: My 12 month old's favorite book is "The Foot Book" by Dr. Seuss. So I bought her several other Dr. Seuss books for her birthday. She really likes this book. The other Dr. Seuss books that I purchased are a little long and wordy for her for right now, but "Hop on Pop" is perfect for this stage-and it's nice that it comes in board book form.
