About This Book
Reach for this book when you want to turn a quiet afternoon into a joyful session of bonding and vocal play. It is perfect for toddlers who are just beginning to notice the busy world around them and are learning how to greet others. Mo Willems uses his signature wit to transform a simple concept book into an interactive social experience. The book introduces young children to various flying creatures, including birds, bees, and bats, while inviting the reader to participate in a friendly call-and-response. Beyond teaching animal names, it models the social rhythm of saying hello. It is a wonderful choice for parents looking to build early vocabulary and social confidence in a way that feels like a game rather than a lesson.
