Why kids love Splash!
Dynamic sound effects for performance
The rhythmic text is filled with explosive onomatopoeia that turns the act of reading into a loud and interactive physical performance.
Anticipatory build toward a climax
Children love the shift from the quiet stillness of the hot jungle to the sudden, chaotic burst of energy when the baby elephant finally jumps into the water.
Oversized visuals for shared viewing
The large and sprawling illustrations allow children to lean into the pages and feel as though they are part of the crowded, splashing party.
Relatable sensory relief
The book captures the universal and satisfying feeling of cooling down on a hot day, making the animals' joy feel personally recognizable to a young child.
