Questions parents ask
Do I need the first book to understand this one?
No. Each book stands on its own. Together they work better, because the child already knows Max and recognizes him.
How long does it take to read aloud?
One story takes two to three minutes at a toddler's pace. The whole book takes about ten.
What does the child come away with?
The names of animals they meet in the stories, and four familiar places described in words a one year old can follow: the zoo, the beach, the fair and the park.
