Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Ms. Rachel brings her signature teaching style to her very first book! Children will practice more than 20 important milestones--including gestures and speech--and sing their favorite songs as they help Ms. Rachel find a special surprise just for them.

Ms. Rachel is looking for something very special, and she needs your help finding it!

Using educational techniques from her beloved YouTube channel and threading them into an interactive story, Ms. Rachel shows kids and parents alike fun ways to engage and play!

While Ms. Rachel invites readers to open a series of imaginary boxes to see what's inside, she guides them through exercises like pointing, waving, and call-and-response. Fans will recognize characters from their favorite videos, and everyone will join in on singing the lyrics to songs like "The Wheels on the Bus." After the adventure ends, parents and educators can use the helpful tips included in the back of the book to assist with brain and language development.

Kids are sure to read and reread this new classic! There's plenty to keep them delighted and engaged with their favorite teacher. And, as always, she makes sure they know just how special they are!

I love to buy books for my baby, and this may be one of my favorites I have found! There is so much content and there are so many opportunities for learning. Would definitely recommend for anyone- even if you don’t watch Ms. Rachel!

This book is my 19-month-old son's favorite! We've built a daily reading routine, but no matter how many new books I introduce, he always comes back to Ms. Rachel. The combination of engaging writing, songs, and sign language makes storytime so much fun, and he enjoys every page. If you're considering this book for your toddler, I highly recommend it.

My daughter got this book as a present, her and I both love it! My daughter is 16 months and able to interact and do most of the things in there. It also has a mirror in it which is great! I do wish it was a little more indestructible…..My daughter wants to look through it herself at times and help me turn the pages. I know other reviews were saying they wish it had push buttons of Ms. Rachel saying things but I’m glad it doesn’t. I’m not a fan of those in general but I love that it gives me more reading/singing time with my daughter and I can sing those songs with her. I think that’s the whole point of the book so you can sit down and get one on one with your child with an interactive book with characters that they love.

Miss Rachel I like all the pages from this book. I gave it a 100 out of 100 and this book is the best and I love you. I wish I can see you. And Bina and Nathan and my dad - signed my 6 year old son who felt so strongly about this book he wanted to write his own review. All 3 of my kids (6. 3, and 1) love this book!

Not a board book but a song book.

Targetshopper - 5 months ago, Verified purchaser
Not a horrible book but not a book that you would expect when it's a book specifically for babies and toddlers. It's more of a song book that would have been nice with song buttons on the side. Also would have been great to be a board book so that it can't be so easily torn. I also think it would have been nice to have a pop up version of this book instead when you say open to open the box. Babies and toddler love that. Just think the book could have been alittle more thought out especially since it's geared towards specific audience .

My baby loves Ms. Rachel! This book is like a video, but it allows you to spend quality time together without screens. My baby enjoys acting out the words I read. It’s a really fun, interactive book to share with your little one.
