Customer Reviews

My son loves this book!

I am using this book with BFIAR (Before Five in a Row) and my son (3) adores it. We have read it four days in a row and each time he asks me to reread it at least three times. The first reading I was surprised by how engaged he was in this simple book. He was really worried about the ball for a while but overjoyed at the happy ending. We have really enjoyed this book and hope you do too!

Great when used with the Five-in-a Row curriculum

Otherwise, I don't think I would have gotten as much enjoyment from it! My daughter likes the book, and we play hide-and-seek with her yellow ball.

A new approach to concept introduction

Simple, one or two word descriptions are a perfect, minimalist accompaniment to the unconventional, striking illustrations from interesting perspectives that reinforce concepts like "above," "below," "near," and "far" in this book. Of course, what my toddler liked the very most was finding the bright yellow "ball!" on every page.

A favorite kid-pick at my 2 year old daughter's daycare

This book entrances the 2+ year olds in my daughter's daycare center with its beautiful, wordless illustrations. A peaceful, enchanting book that I wish were not out of print so we could enjoy our own copy at home!
