Who hops? Frogs and rabbits, kangaroos and...cows? Well, maybe not cows. How about flies, slithers, swims, and crawls? Animals are known for doing many different things, but not all of them do everything. So what do those animals do? And who can do them all?
Who Hops? is a delightful book that teases the children while building their vocabulary and their knowledge of animals. The colorful and fun illustrations capture the surprise on an animal's face when they are asked to do something they cannot do, and the antics that would occur if they tried. This book is fun from front to back.
This new release of Who Hops? is a lap-sized board book perfect for the rough handling it is sure to get by tiny hands. It is written in parallel with Spanish to be enjoyed by either language speaker and can be used to teach languageelements. Especially with its repetitive nature, children with quickly be calling out "No! No Saltan!"
Armchair Interviews says: Who Hops? is a fun addition to any children's library.
