The Balloon Chase (Big Cat Story Talk)

By Julia Seal

Big Cat Story Talk is a research-informed language program that places books at the center of every session. Using a series of lively, wordless picture books, the program builds vocabulary, strengthens language and communication skills, and supports social and emotional well-being through quality interactions and rich, child-led book discussions.

Follow Jack as he buys--and then loses--his balloon at the local school fair. With the help of the people around him, can he track it down?

Themes: people who help us, fairground, play, emotions, weekend, family, friends, animals, towns

The Big Cat Story Talk program includes online training, videos, and resources to support classroom implementation, delivery, and engagement.
