About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is in the mood for some giggly, low stakes absurdity or when they are learning that even a big, messy muddle can be fixed with a little patience and creativity. It is the perfect choice for a rainy afternoon when things feel a bit out of sorts and you want to model a calm, 'can-do' attitude through humor. In this farmyard romp, a fierce wind literally blows the sounds right out of the animals, leaving the cows oinking and the pigs quacking. Bonnie Bumble is the unflappable heroine who must help everyone find their voices again. While the plot is pure whimsical fun, it subtly touches on themes of resilience and problem solving. It is ideal for preschoolers and early elementary children who are mastering animal sounds and will find the misplaced 'quacks' and 'moos' absolutely hilarious.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is entirely secular and whimsical. The 'loss' of the sounds is treated as a silly physical mishap rather than a scary or permanent disability.
