28 months - we continue to work on pre-reading skills. There aren't many books that focus on just one sound at a time like this one does. O really enjoys them too. Yay for "t".

Mama read this to me the other day. I liked identifying the words in the book based on the pictures. We both liked continuing to talk using words that start with T all day.
