Reach for this book when your toddler is beginning to notice the big kids playing at the park or when you want to channel their high energy into a structured game. This interactive title uses rhythmic riddles to introduce the basic concepts of popular sports through a lens of pure silliness. It is a perfect choice for active children who need to engage their hands as much as their minds during storytime.

It is an ideal bridge for children aged 1 to 4 who are curious about teamwork and physical play but still need the tactile engagement of a novelty book.
