Overview
A ticking clock, a ringing telephone, a chirping bird, a roaring vacuum cleaner, and a blaring siren are some of the noisy subjects described in this in this book for curious toddlers. Some of the sounds are funny and familiar, novel and delightful, or loud and startling; but all will delight rapt youngsters who are ""all ears."" Full color.

Reviews
An inquisitive toddler . . . helps readers discover the sources of different sounds. . . . Painting in her familiar naif style, Slegers sets the proceedings against white backdrops, the gloppy layers of bright colors recalling finger-painting and pointing to the excitement of discovery. -- Publishers Weekly (December 12, 2011)
"Praise for Liesbet Slegers's other books: Surprisingly, a book for little ones consisting of four chapters is a developmentally appropriate winner. - Kirkus Review (ME AND MY DAY) ""Bright, boldly colored illustrations with thick outlines and cheery characters match the direct text's style....A book for car-loving kids."" - Kirkus Reviews (ME AND MY CARS) ""[This book] presents a common childhood experience through a friendly narrator who explains step-by-step what is happening. [It] will guide parents through a discussion of what to expect as they prepare and reassure their children."" - School Library Journal (KEVIN GOES TO THE LIBRARY) ""Toddlers should be drawn to this straightforward depiction of a common experience."" - Publishers Weekly (KEVIN GOES TO THE LIBRARY) ""Grasping the pages and pulling them apart will help children with their fine motor skills. The slide feature also allows the child to participate in the read-aloud by controlling the pacing of the surprises."" - curledupkids.com (TAKE A LOOK VROOM) ""Help baby grow up to be a reader by giving gibing books as gifts for baby showers. Babies and toddlers love interactive board books -- board books with things to touch, pull, lift, and slide like"" - Imagination Soup (TAKE A LOOK BUNNY)"
