When I "read" it, I had a box marked "From the Zoo" (as if the kids could read it) and I would just say the same line over and over again:And the noisy fun does not stop once readers realise which barking animal would be just right to keep at home, as there is a fun activity section that will see them using the sound buttons to answer some challenging questions about what they have just read. This story is a fun introduction to animals and their characteristics. It is written in the first person, with repetitive sentences. The nature of repetitiveness enables young readers to predict and engage with the story. months later this is still a firm favorite with my niece, who wanted it read three times before bed. She has memorized it now, and certainly knows the name of all the animals, but seems to enjoy pretending to not know them. If I ask, "What do you think is in this cage?" and she knows it is a lion, she'll say "Giraffe!" and when we get to the giraffe she'll insist it's a kitty, and that sort of thing. Two-year-olds are quite contrary. Dear Zoo Noisy Book is an interactive play-along edition of the preschool classic.
