Say Zoop! - (Herve Tullet) by Herve Tullet (Board Book)

Book Synopsis

A playful celebration of sound completes the quartet of board book editions that began with Hervé Tullet's mega-bestselling Press Here.

Press Here, Mix It Up!, Let's Play!, and now Say Zoop! Collect all four interactive books from bestselling children's book author Hervé Tullet!

Make some noise! Shout "OH!" Whisper "oh!" Say "Zoop"? Yes! "Zoop!" "Zoop!" "Zoop!" This endlessly entertaining board book magically responds with bursts of color and moving shapes, empowering children by letting their imaginations liberate and direct each page's reaction. In this worthy and exhilarating companion to the trio launched with Press Here--the longest-running picture book on the New York Times bestseller list--Tullet's beloved dots will have readers literally "Ooh"-ing and "Ahh"-ing out loud in a happy collective encore.

• Say Zoop! is an ideal interactive book for toddlers and young children
• Helps children learn colors and participation
• Excellent as a preschool read-aloud book

Tullet's books define the genre of participatory bookmaking, encouraging readers to explore and interact with the physical book in all its dimensions. The reward is tremendous: a journey of whimsy and sheer fun that extends well beyond the book's pages.

FUN & EDUCATIONAL GIFT: This book's gorgeous graphic visuals make it an irresistible choice for gift-giving, and the addition of educational and emotional concepts offers an appealing bonus.

STIMULATES THE IMAGINATION: Celebrate the magic of imagination and play on each page, where every action is a fun adventure! This unique interactive picture book about sound and participation is especially remarkable because the adventure occurs on the flat surface of the simple, printed page.

AN INNOVATIVE WAY TO BUILD DEXTERITY: This is the perfect book for young children to learn about following directions using simple hand movements. Parents and children who have enjoyed I Have an Idea!, The Game of Finger Worms, and The Book with a Hole will love this latest and greatest from Hervé Tullet.
