Ages 2-6. Children love to show that they know something. What better way than a book about shouting what you know! I can see kids really enjoying this book in a group setting where they can participate with other children. I like this book because it isn't just an ABC, 1-2-3, animal, or color book, but all three in one. Then towards the end, there is a section where the children can whisper like mouse. Great for vocabulary also. A dynamic fun book. The book "SHOUT! Shout it out!" by Denise Fleming seemed busy and confusing to me as the reader. While it seemed like an ABC book it also had random spurts of 123's and other word patterns. One of the first things to strike me about the book was that most of the children looked the same but the teacher seemed to be drawn very differently than the children having a difference in her nose and eyes. Although the illustrations were bright and popped out to the reader the print varied from small to large and I often got confused on where to go next. The book seemed obnoxious in the way that a different child shouted something different each page. It wasn't made clear why they were shouting the things they were. There is no certain order in this book and it came across as unorganized. The last page was especially busy when the illustrator wrote all numbers 1-10, all letters A-Z and all colors red to violet on one page.
What do You think about Shout! Shout It Out! (2011)?
The colors are great, and this would be fun to have the kids shout out the illustrations.

This book really encourages self- expression through oral language.
