Do You Have a Tail? [Board book]

Simms Taback (Illustrator, Artist)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 17, 2007 | Age Level: 1 and up

Do you have eyes? Do you have ears? Do you have a nose? Do you have a tail? Simms Taback's cheerful and energetic animals compare their similarities and differences.

A mouse finger puppet attached to the book encourages playful, interactive reading. The puppet "talks" to the animal in the book and to the child who is listening . . . making this book uniquely interactive. Young readers will hardly be able to wait for their turn to use the puppet and participate.
