Board Book: There, There. Taro Miura. 2016. Candlewick. 22 pages. [Source: Review copy]
First sentence: Frog says, "Ribbit, ribbit!" Chicken says, "Cluck, cluck!"
Premise/plot: This may at first appear to be a simple, predictable book. (I think of Bing Bong, Riley's imaginary friend!!!) But it has a twist. After the baby goes "wah, wah!" the animals, well, they mix things up a bit! Can the baby restore order in the world?!
My thoughts: I LOVE the twist in this one. It is probably still a little on the predictable side. (The title may just provide the solution.) But it is FUN. It is newly translated into English this year.
