Full of labelling - not recommended Every page of this book has two boys that are labelled 'noisy': "Who's making that noise - is it those noisy boys?" Labelling children may be endemic in our society but that doesn't change the fact that labelling gets in the way of kids building strong self-esteem. Books that make labelling so central to their story as this one are just reinforcing a bad habit that our society has developed, and we avoid them and don't subject our child to them.
We LOVE this book I bought these books (Who's Making That Mess/Smell/Noise) for my then 18 month old son for Christmas. At first we would read the story and lift the flaps to see what was there. Now he loves to look for the semi-hidden yellow duck and white mouse on each page. He also loves to point out the every day items, like the soccer ball the boys play with. This book (and the others) has kept him entertained for a month so far and there is still room to grow. I highly recommend these books.
Great book for Toddlers! My son is autistic and this is the only book he will sit down and listen to. You have to read it with enthusiasm to keep his attention, but when you do he loves it. Thanks goes out to the author and illustrator!
