Baby-Toddler–This engaging title offers a fun exploration of call and response, written by an early speech expert. Simple digital illustrations depict familiar farm scenes, while bold, concise text prompts readers to identify words or sounds associated with the images. For example, one page shows a henhouse with two eggs and reads, “I count the chicken’s eggs and I say…” A photo of a child is superimposed on the illustration, with a speech bubble saying, “One, Two.” The inclusion of real children’s photos adds an extra layer of relatability and charm for young readers, who will delight in knowing the answers. Back matter includes helpful tips for engaging children in speech development and suggestions for interactive games.
VERDICT A delightful educational addition to any library collection.
