Props to Larry Baum.
Al and Bo are great friends. Together they play ball at the playground. However, tossing a ball is only the beginning. Their adventure quickly escalates to an event that is exciting for children and adults alike!
Who would even imagine that a book could be written that uses only two letter words? Yet somehow Larry Baum, the author, along with illustrator Joanna Pasek have made it happen! Despite using less than a dozen different words, the story is complete and the colorful illustrations flawlessly fill in the necessary gaps in dialogue. BO, GO UP! is perfect for children just beginning to learn how to read. The illustrations will draw them in, and the simple story provides a fun way to begin learning phonics and transitioning into reading.
Props to Larry Baum for the innovative idea of a two-word book for the earliest of readers! Parents and teachers alike are sure to appreciate the ease with which BO, GO UP! entices children to associate sounds with letters and begin reading all by themselves.
