Beep! Beep!

I got this book from the library for my son (who's 3.5). He likes ANYthing that Goes. This book covers all things that go; and the sounds they make in a fun and rhythmical fashion. Vehicles ranging from cars, to helicopters to a tank and much more. It was such a big hit! Although the book is probably geared for a younger child than him, he still really enjoys it! He likes memorizing the easy text, enjoys the fun pictures, and of course likes the little boy that zooms all around his room. One cool thing I found when I got the book the 2nd time around from the library, was that he is trying to READ it! With simple words placed in the photo above the text, like VROOM, ZOOM, ZIP, WOWEE, BOOM, etc., he sounds things out and tries to read the words...and since they are easy and interesting words, it is fun! If your child is a fan of all things that "GO" they will enjoy this little book, it is short, and fun to read again and again (without you, the parent/caregiver going insane).

Beep! Beep! has simple, yet beautiful illustrations that will catch the eyes of preschoolers. Anne Miranda narrates the story with rhythmical, predictable, and ryhming words which invite preschoolers to naturally join in. The book does a fine job of bringing transportation vehicles to life by giving them voices. This book is a hit with my preschool students!
