Books like I Went Walking
By Sue Williams
For the toddler who points at every dog, bird, and squirrel on the sidewalk, this turns a walk into a game of guess-who. Sunny, playful, and rhythmic, with a gentle sense of surprise on every page.
Three animals model colorful hats, shirts, and pants with calm confidence, while a fumbling turkey gets dressed all wrong, turning every page into a game of spotting the mistake.
Seven quirky dinosaurs — including zooming Zoomer, sleepy Dozy, and weepy Sob — take turns starring in their own tiny tabbed story, each with a personality all its own.
A bright, rhyming romp through a day in the life of birds — from the rooster's dawn crow to the owl's nighttime call — inviting little ones to cheep and tweet along.
A little fish paddles through the underwater world, meeting all kinds of fish along the way — spotty, stripy, happy, grumpy, hairy, scary, even curly whirly and twisty twirly.
The numbers 1 through 100 race each other up an apple tree in a rhyming chant, piling higher and higher until bumblebees threaten trouble at the top.
A sound-making wonder named Mr. Brown moos like a cow, hoos like an owl, buzzes like a bee, and even chews gum like a grum-grumming hippo, daring readers to make every noise right along with him.
A brown bear, a red bird, a yellow duck, and other colorful animals appear one by one, each asked the same singsong question about what it sees next.
A friendly little pick-up truck greets farm animals along a country road, beeping and honking hello — until he gets stuck in the muck and needs his animal friends to push him out.
A ravenous little mouse sits down to lunch and can't stop eating, working his way through a crisp white turnip, orange carrots, yellow corn, and green peas until his belly is bulging.
A parade of rhyming oddballs takes readers from near to far and here to there — a bumpy Wump, a singing Ying, a winking Yink who drinks pink ink — with no plot but plenty of silly counting and rhyming along the way.
A paint-happy kid gets banned from painting after covering everything from ceiling to floor, then finds a wildly funny way to keep creating anyway — using every color on hand.
