Description



Book Synopsis



First infants "coo" and then they "babble," as they learn the sounds in their family's language. Infants and their grownups will love to explore and share this sturdy, high-contrast book, which introduces 10 vowel sounds (short and long A, E, I, O, U) in a series of scenes featuring owl parents putting their baby to bed - or at least trying to. Written by a pediatrician and early literacy expert, applying scientific and educational principles in a fun, innovative, interactive way - this book is literally a hoot!
