What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is universally cheerful and contains no sensitive material.
Ideal Reader
A baby aged 3 to 18 months, particularly one in the oral discovery phase who puts everything in their mouth. It is for the child who is developing their pincer grasp and enjoys tactile sensations like crinkling pages. This is the perfect book for a parent wanting to introduce a reading routine without the stress of potential destruction.
Parent Prep
No preparation is needed. The book is wordless, so the parent can read it cold. Caregivers are encouraged to create their own narration, make sound effects (like "jingle, jingle!"), and point out colors and objects to the child. The parent has just watched their baby chew on, rip, or otherwise destroy a beloved cardboard or paper book. They are looking for a book that is genuinely baby-proof and can be safely explored with hands, mouth, and even in the high chair or bath.
