This story comes with sound waves. The child can click on buttons and listen to "sounds" that are in the particular story they are reading.
This book is the first in a series...Sounds I Can Hear is a collection of six short stories that will enlighten any child's imagination and are filled with sounds, descriptions and fun that every child can relate to. These stories will get a child's mind working and I believe that they will always think of these books when sitting somewhere quiet. They, too, will try to find and describe all the sounds that they can hear. Stories include the sounds your child will hear while in a car, in an airplane, in their backyard, in their bedroom at night, in the park and even while in a store.
