The Treasure Hunt: We Love to Talk!

By: Harding, Jacqueline

The Treasure Hunt invites children to go on an adventure with a group of minibeasts to find a box of exciting playthings and hunt for a Bug Hotel. Using pinecones and leaves that they found on the way, they make the Bug Hotel into a home before celebrating with a song.

This beautifully illustrated story book is designed to engage young children through a rich cast of characters and a playful narrative, whilst sharing essential positional words, including 'inside' and 'under.' The book employs a rotation scheme and repeatable actions, which are innately attractive to young children, and the concluding song is accompanied by professional music available on the companion website. On each page, a tiny hidden fantasy minibeast can also be found, which practitioners can encourage children to identify and describe.

This story book can be used effectively alongside the companion story book The Mud Cakes and accompanying guide, Little Brains Love to Talk. It is an ideal resource for educators, speech and language therapists and other practitioners working with young children, as well as for parents looking to support their child's language skills.
