Recommended Age: 0+
Format: Board Book
This book has very minimal words. A mother leaves her baby in the crib and leaves her dog Carl to babysit. Almost immediately after the Mom leaves, the baby scales the crib and lands on Carl's back. Carl and the baby get into all sorts of trouble and the illustrations are expressive and funny. This wordless book is a great first step in literacy. A book like this can teach infants and toddlers how to hold a book, how to turn pages, when they are looking at the pictures the adult reading it can say key words like "First" and "Next" this gives the child an idea of narration and how a story works. They can learn to understand that a story has a beginning, middle and end. This is a great book to build key literacy skills, with young children.
