Wheels! - (Dr. Books) by John Hutton (Board Book)

Book Synopsis

There's so much to love about WHEELS! This rollicking book, loosely modeled on the classic, Wheels on the Bus, features cars, trucks, tractors, tricycles, scooters and more. But that's not all! It also models "Dialogic Reading," which is an evidence-based approach to making reading with young children more fun and interactive, shown to build language, literacy and relationship skills. Questions on each page spread provide built-in cues for grown-ups and also encourage children to participate. Wheels! is the fifth in the popular DR Books series, written by a pediatrician and early literacy expert, with vibrant, engaging illustrations.
