Synopsis

An interactive reading experience (with built-in speech development tactics) that helps children learn and vocalize functional words through the best method possible: having fun!

Perched in a tall apple tree, Pip sees a strange green machine enter the backyard. Watching its path from overhead, he quickly directs his animal friends to safety by repeating helpful, directional words.

To his front, Mr. Rabbit sat eating a sprout.
“Oh, no!” tweeted Pip. “Mr. Rabbit, watch out!”
“Mr. Rabbit, the bushes! Go down, down, down!
Dig under the rock and stay deep underground.”

The man traveled faster with each push, push, push.
The dirt all went flying from beneath the bush.
The motor went vroom, the machine turned around,
and the little white rabbit was now safe and sound.

Can Pip devise a plan to stop the machine for good and save the day?

A story of bravery and friendship, little ones will delight in the characters and entertaining storyline while learning useful words to express their wants and needs along the way. The use of rhyme, repetition, emphasized key words and prompts will keep children captivated and interested in chiming in on words such as up, down, over, push, go and stop.

Perfect for children who enjoy:

  • A lovable main character/hero of the story
  • Cute backyard animals
  • Anything on wheels that goes "vroom"
  • Vibrant illustrations with a bonus character to find on every page
  • Fun, rhyming text with anticipatory repetition


Written by the mother of a speech-delayed child and endorsed by a speech-language pathologist, a list of recommendations for supporting speech and language skills while reading is included at the front of the book.
