Episode Eighteen: Who's That I Hear?

7 min · 1. juni 2021

Description

Thank you Phaedra for your joke at the beginning of the episode! Children can’t fall fast asleep when things go “bump” in the night. Is it the wind? The creaking floors? A monster? Or just their imagination? In the delightful new children’s book, Who’s That I Hear?, from award-winning author DJ Hill, our young hero is unsettled by unfamiliar sounds in his bedroom. Written primarily for children ages 2-6, Who’s That I Hear? follows one little boy’s journey as he’s reassured by his parents and works up the courage to find the source of the strange noises himself.

Episode Nineteen: If You Were a Dog

If You Were a Dog, by Jamie A. Swenson and special sneak peak to Jamie's new book CHIRP! Chipmunk Sings for a Friend. Thank you for this fun joke by our guest Author and Storyteller Jamie A. Swenson! For this episode, Jamie, author and librarian, talks about onomatopoeia and her love for words that actually look like the sound it makes such as: AROOOOOOO!!!! or DRIP! DRIP! DRIP! or CREEEEAAAAKKKKKK!!!!! ABOUT THE BOOK: If you could be any kind of animal, what would you be? Would you be a dog that goes ARRRROOOOOOO? Or maybe you would be a sharp-toothed dinosaur that can CHOMP, STOMP, ROAR! Perhaps you might want to be a hopping frog that goes BOING, BOING, RIBBET! But maybe you would want to be the best kind of animal of all: a child! Visit TheStoryTree.org for more information about Jamie A. Swenson and were you can email your illustrations or leave me a voice messages telling us your favorite onomatopoeia.
