What Kind of Book is Cockatoo, Too
Reviews
Incredibly clever concept with wordplay, but it's definitely lost on my toddler. That being said, the illustrations are comical and engaging which helps!
This book just makes me laugh! I love the word play, and I love how silly everything sounds reading it aloud. The illustrations are cute, too! I recommend this for older children, though, as younger children won't understand the play on words.
