Customer Reviews

Engaging story

My daughter, at just 18 months old, loves this book. I found this book on sale, bought it, and thought I would hold on to it until she was older. No need. She repeatedly asks us to read this to her, and will sit still as we work through the entire book. She loves the illustrations as well. I would recommend this book for any young child.

Love this book

This book explains the concepts of "Who, what, where, why, when" simply and directly. It is a captivating little book that my children enjoyed and asked for over and over. It is helpful for kids who have a speech and language deficit, problems processing information, or just for young kids who don't understand the difference in these words. This book is highly recommended for children who are on the autism spectrum.

Great illustrations, adorable story line

We read this to every neighborhood child who comes to our house! It has also become a favorite baby shower gift and birthday party gift. The illustrations keep even the most distractable child's attention and the story is great! There are at least two others in the series!

Great for all kids

This is a very cute story of a boy searching for his shoe. It is so much fun that kids wont even realize they might be learning something. This book finds a creative way to help kids get the concepts of who, what, when and where.
