"Who Hops?" is a delightful interactive picture book that engages young readers with its rhythmic text and vibrant illustrations. Katie Davis brings her signature warmth and humor to this educational story that teaches children about different animal movements while keeping them entertained.
Perfect for read-aloud sessions, this book encourages participation as children guess which animals hop, crawl, fly, and swim. The repetitive, predictable text pattern makes it an excellent choice for emerging readers, while the detailed illustrations provide plenty of opportunities for discussion and discovery.
"A bouncy, interactive treat that will have kids hopping up and down with excitement. Katie Davis knows exactly what makes preschoolers tick."
