Tikki Tikki Tembo by Arlene Mosel

Tikki tikki tembo-no sa rembo-
chari bari ruchi-pip peri pembo!

Five decades and more than one million copies later children still love hearing about the boy with the long name who fell down the well. Arlene Mosel and Blair Lent's classic has hooked legions of children, teachers, and parents, who return, generation after generation, to shout the name of Tikki tikki tembo-no sa rembo-chari bari ruchi-pip peri pembo.

Tikki Tikki Tembo is the winner of the 1968 Boston Globe - Horn Book Award for Picture Books.

Arlene Mosel was born in 1921 in Cleveland, Ohio. She was a librarian and author who collaborated with Blair Lent on two award-winning children's picture books: Tikki Tikki Tembo, which received the Boston Globe-Horn Book Award and was named an ALA Notable Book as well as a New York Times Best Children's Book, and The Funny Little Lady, which won the Caldecott Medal and a 1974 Hans Christian Andersen International Children's Book Award.
