Reach for this book when your toddler is in that magical phase of pointing at the world and asking, What is that? It is the perfect companion for a child who is just beginning to find their voice and wants to categorize the vibrant world around them. Rather than a single story, this is a joyful compendium of first concepts, ranging from colors and shapes to animals and nursery rhymes. Denise Fleming uses her signature pulp-painting style to create bold, textured illustrations that are easy for young eyes to track.
