Trish the Fish is a teeny tiny fish. Always in a hurry she rushes through the ocean with a swish, swash, swoosh, and a splish, splash, splosh. Written by a speech and language therapist, each story in the award winning Early Soundplay series helps parents and practitioners develop children's spoken and written language. The stories are packed with multiple repetitions of selected sounds and rhymes. Trish the Fish has a special focus on the sound 'sh'.The simple interactive storyline makes it easy for children to anticipate what happens next and to join in when they hear the story again. This provides lots of opportunities for them both to hear and practise saying 'sh' words.Children love sound play it's fun! And it helps their ability to recognise and say speech sounds in different words. This is not only important for clear speech but gives them a head start in phonics and learning to read and spell.
