Mice Squeak, We Speak: A Poem

Super cute book! I love all the animal sounds and rhyming with humans speaking, saying, and talking. I thought it was absolutely perfect to getting the point across, giving the young children the idea of animal sounds and getting them to interact with the reading as well. It is a book that I would love to have in my classroom library to let the students read to help with developing a poem that is simple and easy to relate too.

This book would be perfect for young children, around pre-school age. However, I think it is too simple for children older than that.
This book is a poem that details the sounds that different animals make. The illustrations are bold and bright. The pictures continuously captured my attention. Part of the book is rhyming, which I also liked.
I think this book would be appropriate for pre-school age children and younger. Those students are learning the sounds that animals make, and this book could be a tool for that lesson. The bright pictures would be great for young children. However, I do not really think this book could be used in elementary school because it is too simple and the students would get bored.

A fun story that introduces the sounds made by over twenty different animals while pointing out that there are several ways to refer to the sounds humans make: speak, say, and talk. The illustrations are simple, yet visually interesting and the text has a pleasant rhythm and rhyming pattern. This book is one that young children will love to memorize and recite along with the reader.

Very cute easy read for students in k-1 who are just starting reading. It allows students to learn about animals and the sounds they make. It has all types of words that students can easily say or ones they might have to learn. I think this book is supper cute and appropriate for the age.

This book was not quite what I was expecting. It's a very simple book that gives descriptions about the sounds that certain animals make. It could possible be used in lower grades during a science lesson on animals, but could not be the only source.

This poem comes to life with dePaola's beautiful illustrations. I loved the bright colors, and I know it will attract the student's attention. For a school setting, I would read this book out loud during story time. I would have my students repeat the animal sounds that are covered in the book. Afterwards, they can draw their own favorite animal and write what sound does that animal make.

This is a very cute book. I like all the picture of the different animals and children saying what they say. This is a good practice book for learning animal names and sounds. Children can make each animal sound when you read each page, they can also say a certain phrase when you come to the pages that say we speak and we say. This would be a good book for infants to kindergarten. I would love to see if this book is made in a small infant size book.
