Great classic!

Admittedly, the illustrations are nothing to write home about, and the rhymes are pedestrian (you could say the same about "Goodnight Moon"). After a few readings, however, this became one of our family's favorites. Children love to anticipate the animal noises on the page following the simple rhymes. The font, size, and layout of the animal sound words are visual cues even a non-reader can understand. I think the concept that letters can represent sounds is effortlessly communicated in these words-as-pictures. Too bad "Roar and More" is not available as a board book, since it's one of the best books for very young children.
