Summary
Each page of this short, cheerful book shows one animal and asks one question. The little cat says "meow," the cute dog says "woof," the white lamb says "baa," the duck in the pond says "quack," the bird on the branch sings "chirp," and the big horse says "neigh." On the last page, the child who learned every sound is cheered on.

Parents' Corner
Reading Level: Pre-A1 Every page ends with a question like "What does the cat say?" which leaves room for your child to answer. Make the sounds yourself the first time, then ask and wait on later readings. Bounce your child on your knees like a galloping horse at "neigh, neigh," or open and close your fingers like a beak for "chirp, chirp" to turn reading into play. Imitation is an important step toward talking at this age, so greet every sound your child makes with delight.
