'Wishy Washy' takes your young child on an adventure as they learn new words through life-like paintings, bright colours and an animal friend who guides them along the way. This book is more dynamic than other basic first-words or colour books because its pictures and words were strategically chosen to start with early developing phonemes (b,p,m,d,t) and to teach your child words they can easily say or approximate at a very young age (nine months to two years old) like 'puppy' vs 'elephant'.
