What a terrific book and I love the illustrations too!
Donna, your book sounds wonderful and I love the idea of helping a child learn to annunciate the letter S by reading your story aloud.The illustrations are a riot. Very nice review, Shari. Thanks for sharing it.
Terrific review. I'll share this with Hayley's old speech teacher from pre-k.
I'm so jealous of your & Bill's talent for rhyming. It's not fair.
