Synopsis

Nat the bat is small and fat and loves to chitter chatter chat. Chatty Bat chats to spiders, moths and gnats. She chats to horses, dogs and cats. It's very noisy with constant chatter until it's time to sleep - then no more chitter, no more chatter, not a peep!

 

Written by a speech and language therapist each Early Soundplay story is full of repetition, rhythm and rhyme – brilliant for supporting young children’s language!

 

Chatty Bat is full of sound play with a special focus on the ‘at’ rhyme.

About this title

Review

The children really enjoyed these books. These colourful books use playful illustrations and repetitive words and phrases to introduce the child to both individual word sounds and sound sequences. This is an important part of a child's speech development. The humour in the book was appropriate for younger children and the book is in a child-friendly print. The story is simple and engaging. --Practical Preschool Gold Award 2014
