Original Book on Book Dash: Baby Babble (opens in a new tab)- Reading
- Pause at each scene and let the child point, name an object or echo a phrase. Follow their interest rather than reading every line at the same pace.
- Themes
- Everyday feelings and needs: The baby expresses wants and discomfort, becomes sad when the dummy is missing, and is shown glad once it is found. The scenes connect the baby’s expressions with immediate needs, but do not explain or judge the feelings.
- Worth knowing
- The baby is shown upset while looking for a dummy, and with a sore mouth. These feelings are brief parts of the day; the story does not explore them in depth.
