About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler is in a high-energy, 'doing' phase where they want to touch everything and mimic adult jobs. It is perfect for those moments when you need a tactile distraction that also introduces basic social responsibility and empathy through a familiar, comforting character. Spot the puppy spends a busy day on the farm, combining the thrill of a big yellow tractor with the gentle mission of helping a lost animal. The story moves quickly from exploration to problem-solving, teaching little ones that even when we are having fun with our favorite toys, we should keep an eye out for others who might need help. It is an ideal choice for children aged 0 to 3 who are developing fine motor skills and beginning to understand simple narrative arcs.
