Books with title Tomie's Baa Baa Black Sheep

Children are able to communicate by signing before they develop the skills necessary for speech. By teaching simple sign language to children from as young as eight months, we can help them to convey their emotions and their needs. When children begin to talk, having sign language to fall back on provides a comforting safety net. Add to the fun of signing by singing well-known nursery rhymes and songs. Even proficient speakers will long enjoy signing to a favourite song or rhyme. Simple and clear signing instructions allow anyone to join in.

Each book features the original rhyme, accompanied by fun illustrations, with the whole rhyme repeated to allow children to spot the rhyming words. Then follows a fun, alternative nursery rhyme, again with full colour illustrations and the repeat of the whole alternative rhyme. These books not only offer a highly supportive first reading experience, starting from the familiar nursery rhyme and extending with the alternative rhyme, but also encourage children to play with language, stimulating their own writing. The series is compiled in consultation with Dr Hilary Minns, former Lecturer in English in Education at the University of Warwick.

Kids will love this sweet story/song combination as they listen to “Baa Baa Black Sheep,” and follow along word-for-word in the adorably illustrated eBook. This well-known nursery rhyme song is perfect to sing, read, and follow along with just before bedtime, or anytime during the day. This adorable story/song encourages learning through music and introduces children to important early literacy skills they will need for the school years ahead. With this perfect combination of education and entertainment, kids and parents alike will enjoy reading and singing “Baa, Baa, Black Sheep” over and over again!
