What's that Sound? Animal Sounds Every child quickly learns to associate sounds with things they are familiar with as they start to learn language. A two-year-old may frequently ask "What's that Sound?" when they hear something they do not recognize. They are also excited about learning to mimic the sounds of things they are familiar with. Repetition and mimicking is an important part of learning language. A child copies the sound a kitten makes, or the sound of a dog. Knowing how beneficial this process is for toddlers is the impetus for writing this book. The author's 23 month old grandson, asked "What's that sound?" so many times every day, a grandmother did what a grandmother does. She wrote and illustrated "What's that Sound? Animal Sounds" and "What's that Sound? Transportation Sounds" in response to his love for learning sounds. He quickly learned to make the sounds that correspond to various animals and transportation and construction equipment. His environment was filled with new sounds. His grandmother moved to a condo on a busy street and next door to his home a house was demolished and a new house was under construction. He, like most children at that stage of learning language, enjoyed learning the names the thing making the sound. Many times he could not see what was making the noise. For this reason a book supplies an opportunity to learn the vocabulary and phonetic expressions to match.
