I Hear a Pickle: and Smell, See, Touch, & Taste It, Too!

My son came home with this book from school on a loaner program for the week not only does my son look just like the character on the front of the book he loves pickles and I mean loves them. This book was great because it helps explain the five senses to kids cuz we can tell them touch hear see smell taste but that doesn't mean that they're listening to us yet when they can see a picture which is teaching them see when they know what they're looking at cuz they've smelled certain items when they know what we show them a picture of something that's referring to sound they know what that sounds like when we show them a picture of an animal that they know then they know that that's what that feels like they start to understand and it's a simple book that as you're reading they start to read it and the next thing you know you're only having to say one or two words because they're finishing it for you. It's amazing how often my son wants to read this book that I had to find it and I had to buy it for him and he loves it and I love that he loves it because it means that he's learning to love reading and using his mind it may be a simple book but it's a simple book that you can do step by step with your kids and helped open that door to them that there's more than just YouTube videos and cartoons that say these things this is you having that one-on-one personal time in connection with them as well which is amazing and something that needs to always be built and fostered and loved and nurtured

We originally found this book at our library, but my son loved it so much that we had to buy a copy for our home library! Each sense is highlighted by several examples that are relative to early learners and easy to explain. The art is lovely in the book and often silly. My son is 2 and sincerely, because of this book, has a fundamental grasp on his 5 senses, can point to where you use each sense and now consistently walks around saying everything he can see haha! I cannot recommend this book highly enough.

We loved this book in our 3 year old preschool class. We do a lesson on the 5 senses and this was a perfect book to read prior to our discussion and craft.

Great book for toddlers. The illustrations are adorable and there are so many neat words for them to learn. I love how she divided the book into see, smell, touch and taste sections and how she repeats some of the same scenarios into more than one sense kind of like I taste a pickle and then again in another section I hear the pickle's crunch, etc.
