"If a kid grows and becomes a goat, can a sweater grow and become a coat?" This is just one of the many thought provking questions presented to the reader in the book Do You Know Which Ones Will Grow? by Susan A. Shea. And I will just say, I LOVE THIS BOOK!! What a great concept. The three year old and I read this tonight after picking it up at the library and had a great time with it. Each page presents you with a "grown up" animal and the "baby" version. Then on the opposite page there is a nonliving item - car, stool, cap, etc - and the question is raised will it become.... - truck, chair, hat, - and shows the nonliving item's "grown up" version on a flip out page. Not only does this book reinforce animals and the baby's names but also helps them begin to understand living vs nonliving in a simpler, somewhat silly, manner. We will be purchasing this book for our school library for first grade to use with their living and nonliving study and I would love to get it for our OWN library at home :)
