Dog's Birthday

Toddlers love tactile books and this one is no exception. Dog is celebrating his birthday. He pulls bright blue, sparkly paper off his present---a red plaid coat. Bird give Dog a yellow plastic ball and Cat gives him a shiny dinner bowl. Dog ends his day by snuggling into a warm fluffy blanket from Mouse. The textures and bright colors were a clear hit with the preschoolers to which we read the book. You may want to pair this with Dog's Colorful Day: A Messy Story About Colors and Counting by the same author. Terrific choice for your sensory center and/or language arts and reading center.
