Featured Author: Carolyn R. Scheidies for Author's Choice Reviews (http:/pages.ivillage.com/crscheidies/bookreviews/id4.html) Though I thought the concept of having a click-on-sound to go with the storyline on each page a good one, I knew that the book needed a real test--a toddler's point of view.
With that in mind, I sat my just turned three-year-old grandson on my lap and opened up this children's ebook. As we moved through the book, he got to click on such sounds as the rumble of a car engine, wind blowing through hair, birds flying, a motorcycle, dog barking, children laughing and much more.
The story, about a ride in a car, seems not much more than a vehicle to introduce the sounds, and that's all right. Devon enjoyed clicking on the sounds over and over. His favorites were the motorcycle, the dog barking and the children laughing.
At the end, all the sounds are represented on a single page. Devon spent a considerable amount of time--for a three-year-old--moving from picture to picture clicking and listening to the sounds.
My grandson and I got some quality time together, and had fun learning new sounds. Devon and I recommend this book.
Featured Author: Joann Rohr, author of Su Ling's Kite, a collection of other books, editor, and free-lance book reviewer. This delightful, interactive, story is sure to be a big hit with small children. While joining a family on a car trip, even grownups will find the gleeful kid within themselves. Children can easily relate and let their imaginations soar, as they merrily go along for the ride. SOUNDS I CAN HEAR IN A CAR is cleverly crafted by talented author, Jennifer LB Leese. The story and sound effects go together perfectly. What the child sees and hears along the way, make for a memorable and fun trip.
The colorful and lively illustrations by gifted artist, Jo Dunningham, add vivid visualizations to the story. SOUNDS I CAN HEAR IN A CAR is skillfully put together and the instructions are simple and easy for kids to follow. Clicking on the sound icons with a mouse will keep children happy and busy for hours. They will want to make the car journey many times, enjoying what they playfully hear and see along the way.
At the end of the story, there is a multi-colored, collage of thumbnails pictures with sounds attached. The child can click on each and hear the sounds from the story, selected at random. This book can be used as a learning tool that makes picture-word association, easy, and fun. SOUNDS I CAN HEAR IN A CAR by Jennifer LB Leese, is extremely entertaining, educational, and highly recommended by this reviewer.
