Large appealing pictures and sparse text with some more unusual vocabulary make a great read-to-me book. This would work be perfect for a baby/toddler storytime, but I feel just a bit awkward saying the "are you my treasure?" part to a roomful of kids and their parents--probably would work fine, though.

I like that this has Spanish and English in the same page for my student. It follows a pattern of “are you...” and “perhaps you’re...” there’s a good mixture of simple syntax and a few challenging or long words for my student. It was an interactive conversation starter. ( )

Hello Baby! is a picture book for toddlers with simple rhymes and colorful illustrations. The book begins with "Hello, baby! Who are you?" and then continues to introduce different animals. This book is great for reading aloud to toddlers and acting out each of the animals featured in the book.
