Make some noise! Shout Oh ! Whisper oh ! Sing Oooooooh ! Hervé Tullet's book magically responds with dots, bubbles, and bursts of colour, shapes, and motion. Tullet empowers readers by letting their imaginations liberate and control the pages reaction. What PRESS HERE did for touch, this picture book achieves for sound. Tullet extends an irresistible invitation to readers to whisper, sing, cajole, and even shout out syllables so that they may experience the book magically respond.
Hervé Tullet's books define the genre of participatory bookmaking, encouraging, no, demanding that his readers explore and interact with the physical book in all its dimensions. The reward is tremendous: a journey of imagination, whimsy, and sheer fun that extends well beyond the books pages. In this worthy and exhilarating companion to the bestselling trio launched with PRESS HERE, Tullet's beloved dots will have readers literally Ooh -ing and Ahh -ing out loud in a happy collective encore.

Say Zoop! (Chronicle), explores the use of the voice, via, at first, a single blue circle. Addressing the reader throughout with Tullet's trademark dashed-off, capitalized invitations ("ARE YOU REALLY SURE YOU WANT TO PLAY?"), the book prompts its audience to utter big and little "OH"s, vary the volume and tempo, sustain the sound for the length of a double-page spread - and try shivering, crying and diving OHs. It then introduces a new colour/sound - a red dot, AH, who interacts with the first. By the time the third friend - a yellow WAHOO! - shows up, Tullet's claim that "THEY CAN INVENT A WHOLE NEW LANGUAGE" feels irrefutable. The book is straightforwardly educational, in that it prepares the ground for learning to read music - but it also continually explodes the rules it has laid down, opening up an anarchic, colourful, endlessly fertile landscape of the mind." --Times Literary Supplement
'It might look like a case of design uber alles, but Tullet knows his readers and his competitors - those dastardly interactive screens - and has created a joyful, participatory book that will introduce readers to music, maths and mayhem without them even noticing. Get your fingers on it and then repeat after me: "OH! good!"' The Times Weekend
"Elsewhere, in picture books for much younger children, Press Here creator Hervé Tullet returns with Say Zoop! (Chronicle), an anarchically interactive mixture of white space, coloured dots and reader-supplied sound, with a Fantasia feel to its imaginative sparseness. Press the blue dot and say OH get louder or softer, wavery or still add a yellow dot, AH and the delightful mayhem can only end in a rainbow universe of sound." The Guardian
'Another infectiously joyful romp from the panjandrum of playful pointillism.' --Kirkus Reviews, starred review
'Dots, bubbles and bursts of colour invite the reader to make some noise. Hugely fun and imaginative Tullet's deceptively simple books redefine the term interactive' The Bookseller
"This is a book of restless ingenuity. Brilliant in conception, inviting in design, and wonderful in the way it uses the page and explores the possibilities of shape, sounds, and colour. It makes reading into a sound party that will challenge and delight children and adults alike. (5 stars)" --Books For Keeps
"It's hard not to read this book without laughing along and it really is a fun book perfect for children of all ages." ----Let Them Be Small
Herve Tullet is known for his prodigious versatility, from directing ad campaigns to designing fabric for Hermes.
