About this title

Synopsis

Early listening skills lead to understanding and belonging.

"I hear things all around me. Talking is a special sound I hear." Listening is a critical communication skill that builds a child's attention span and leads to understanding. This simple but powerful English-Spanish bilingual board book helps toddlers see why listening is important, understand what it means to be a good listener, and recognize how listening benefits everyone. At home and at school, a little girl discovers wonderful sounds, kind words, new things to learn, and a sense of belonging. "When I really listen, I feel like I matter to someone. I show people they're important to me." Includes tips and information in English and Spanish for teachers, parents, and caregivers and downloadable bonus activities.
