Talk, Baby!
PreSchool-A delightfully positive story about sibling interactions. Max loves his new sister, but he wishes she could talk. As the year progresses, the boy plays with the baby and encourages her to make sounds. A fun, double-page spread featuring a series of flaps shows the child's development month by month as she gurgles and coos. Finally, after her first birthday, she says her first word, "Max," which should come as no surprise to readers. Colorful, cartoonlike artwork adds to the enjoyment of this simple story. A satisfying title that youngsters, especially those with new siblings, should appreciate.JoAnn Jonas, New York Public LibraryCopyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.
