What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. This book contains no sensitive topics and is universally appropriate for its target age group.
Ideal Reader
A baby aged 6 to 18 months who is beginning to engage with bright pictures and rhythmic language, or a toddler aged 18 to 30 months who is in a vocabulary explosion phase and enjoys pointing, naming, and imitating actions and sounds.
Parent Prep
No preparation is needed. The book is self-explanatory. The only suggestion for parents is to be prepared to act out the movements and make the animal sounds with enthusiasm to make the reading experience more interactive and fun. A parent has been advised by a pediatrician to start reading to their baby to promote language skills. Or, a parent notices their toddler pointing at the family pet or animals outdoors and wants a simple, durable book to build on that emerging interest.
