NONFICTION

Things That Go

by Helen Hughes (text) & illus. by Liza Lewis
Tiger Tales. (Slide and See First Words). Mar. 2023. 12p. Board $9.99. ISBN 9781664350663.
COPY ISBN
PreS-K–Cheerful spreads might show objects out of context—sailboat, submarine, speedboat—under the heading “On the Water,” and then the opposite page shows merry animal friends using those boats, in this case. Sliding panels reveal aspects or words about what readers see: the “splash” of the speedboat, or the submarine submerged. Other pages have straight questions and answers.
VERDICT Energetic point and play, this book will entertain lap sitters and give them early training in vocabulary.
