Anatomy of a Bunny Book Pat the Bunny by Dorothy Kunhardt
Philip B. Kunhardt, Jr. wrote, “In the fall of 1938… my mother began to imagine a revolutionary new kind of book for babies.” The first edition of Pat the Bunny reached bookstore shelves in time for Christmas two years later. Copies sold for one dollar each. What’s Inside? Paul and Judy
Dorothy Kunhardt wrote from a baby’s
A rabbit to pat
point of view. To do so, she became a field
A flap to peek under Flowers to smell
researcher, an unschooled ethnographer
A mirror to peer into
studying early child development: After
Daddy’s scratchy face to feel
the birth of her fourth child, Edith, Dorothy
A book about Bunny’s day
started taking notes. She recorded “literally
A ring to try on Bye-bye
thousands” of bits about her toddling development. She observed firsthand Edith’s hands-on learning.

Dorothy submitted her crafted manuscript twice. The second publishing house sat on it for months, much to the dismay of the writer. Little did she know, they were busy contacting manufacturers, trying to figure out how, not whether, to publish her book. Forty-four years later, a child followed in her mother’s footsteps. In 1984, Golden Books published Pat the Cat, by Edith Kunhardt. The Dreaming Game (2004) by Philip B. Kunhardt, Jr. Pat the Bunny (2001) by Dorothy Kunhardt Pat the Cat (1984) by Edith Kunhardt

Wordless Board Books By Linda McInnis, MEd
Illustrated by Sarah Snow Words make a story. What happens if you open a book and there are none? Wordless children’s books do have small amounts of print. Some carry a repetitive word or phrase that pushes the story forward, like, “Not to worry, Mouse. I’ve got an idea!” in My Friend Rabbit by Eric Rohmann. Some have embedded letters, numbers, or words—a recipe in Pancakes for Breakfast, highway signs in Truck by Donald Crews, or the alphabet in A Busy Creature’s Day Eating. Some artists punctuate their pages with sounds and exclamations, like Lita Judge in Red Sled. Some books have no words at all, save book information on front and back covers. In all cases, characters come alive and problems are posed and solved with cut paper, colored pencil, and brush. Children’s books are language vehicles. Book sharing drives both receptive (understanding) and expressive (saying) language learning. Words are key. Researcher Meredith L. Rowe looked at the relationship between child-directed speech and vocabulary development. She found that different kinds of talk are especially helpful at different ages (Rowe, 2012). One-year-olds benefited
8
from hearing lots of words, period; two-year-olds, from hearing lots of different kinds of words, or word diversity. Three-year-olds benefited from de-contextualized speech, or talk removed from the here-and-now. Wordless children’s books let the adult reader adjust the language experience to the age of the child. How to share? The story is there. It just needs words. Get a sense of the book first, as you will likely be doing most of the talking. What will baby do? A onemonth-old will look and listen. Ham it up! A six-month-old will look, listen, grab and gobble. Keep talking. Point and label. A justturned-one might be too busy walking to bother. When they come ‘round, they’ll look and listen a bit longer, and point. Tada! Baby’s point to the page helps focus book talk. Tailor the tell to the point. With repeat reads and prompts, a two-year-old might chime and label. Young three’s might offer a running commentary on page action (Arizpe, 2013). .
9
Since print is sparce, it pops. Take advantage. Point to and say the name of the book on the front cover. Point out print on inside pages. Preschoolers’ print awareness is an emergent literacy skill that relates to later reading ability (Justice & Sofka, 2010). How do you get kids talking? Follow in, follow up. Follow baby’s interest on the page and ask questions. Relate the story to baby’s days, past, present and future. Wordless books suited for very young children tell a simple story. A short list follows, ordered by age, with books for younger readers first. 1. Arizpe, E. (2013). Meaning-making from wordless (or nearly wordless) picturebooks: what educational research expects and what readers have to say. Cambridge Journal of Education, 43(2), 163-176. 2.

Q & A with Lia Kurtin, Speech Pathologist 1. What age is a good age to share wordless books? Wordless picture books are my go-to for baby showers. Parents and newborns can bond during this special time together. The bright, colorful pictures capture little one’s attention and parents have the flexibility of making the story as long or short as they want. Wordless picture books are great from day one. 2. What are the advantages of a wordless book? Books without written text often allow for more flexibility and interaction. When I’m sharing a wordless book with a young child, I let them take the lead. The first few times we read the book may just be building vocabulary to talk about the pictures. After they are more familiar with it, I’ll ask questions to have them think deeper about the characters and events of the story. Finally, it’s important to have the child make connections between the story and their own lives. Books without verse can be a great tool for teaching first words through critical thinking. 3. Parents might wonder, “How do I know if I’m doing it right?” Think of book time as sharing time, instead of just reading to your child. Is your child pointing to the pictures and talking about what is happening? Are they shifting their attention between you and the story? Wordless books are great for having conversations, rather than just having the adult talk and the child listen. If your child is engaged and having fun, then you’re doing it right.

Booklist Pup and Down! (2010) by Sophie Beer Bold black print, labeling opposites, peppers each page. Pictures tell the tale. Beer’s bright, colorful artwork is eye candy for very young babies. The study of opposites makes great reading for young preschoolers. Tummy Time Friends (April, 2020) by Carol McDougall & Shanda LaRamee-Jones An accordion book for supervised tummy time, this happy board has 10 baby faces and a mirror to look at. Mary Had A Little Lamb (2010) by Jonas Sickler and Amy Pixton This lamb lives in Africa. Sickler draws a cheerful rendition of the popular nursery song, no words needed. The cloth book is literally Indestructible®, making it perfect for fiveand six-month-olds who love to grab and crinkle. Sleepy Time (2020) by Patricia Martín and Rocio Bonilla A sweet wordless board about a tot’s bedtime routine: Undress, take a bath, dry off, brush your teeth, pick a book, read a book, chase away monsters from under the bed (Super Dad!) and fall asleep. Baby will relate. I Hear, I See, and I Touch (1985) by Helen Oxenbury These three boards are formatted the same, with a single image and word label on the left and related action scene on the right—a rain cloud pairs with noisy pitter-patter on a child’s umbrella, a butterfly with a chase, a cat with
12
a pat. Each two-page spread invites a short narrative. The books are perfect for twos. Do You Want to Be My Friend? (1995) by Eric Carle A mouse asks a horse, “Do you want to be my friend?” Silence. Mouse moves on. He spies an alligator. The same question hangs in the air. Silence. Carle hints at each new animal encounter with a glimpse of a tail, asking the reader to imagine who Mouse might meet next. Hug (2001) by Jez Alborough A simple story about Bobo, a chimpanzee, is nurtured with a single word, “HUG,” on each page. Book talk about emotions and a happy hug at the end make this a good title for two’s and three’s. Moo! (2014) by David LaRochelle and Mike Wohnoutka A cow relies on a single udder-ance, Moo!, to get herself out of trouble. A Busy Creature’s Day Eating! (2019) by Mo Willems An alien with an appetite eats his way through house and home in this hilarious alphabet book. Willems’ board is the wordiest. A letter and label accompany each picture. A Apples! B Berries! C Cereal! . . . Q Queasy! Pancakes for Breakfast by Tomie dePaola Spoiler alert! This classic wordless picture book is available in hardcover and paperback formats only. A sure favorite with pancakes on the side!

age icons Six icons help match book to baby based on developmental age. They supplement, they do not replace, publishers’ reading age recommendations. Boundaries are fluid—books recommended for one age group may spill over into the next. Many books read to a variety of ages.
newborn to 6 months Books for very young babies bathe baby’s ears in language sounds. Bold graphics, crinkly inserts, and movement draw fuzzy eyes to the page. Books may have brightly colored or black and white pictures, puppet inserts, playful songs to sing, lullabies to sooth, an accordion spine for supervised tummy time.
6 to 12 months Books for 6- to 12-month-olds are necessarily sturdy boards. They teach names of noisy things—animals, toys, vehicles—one thing, one noise, one page at a time. They may have holes to poke, pages to sniff, flaps to peek under, mirror inserts, songs to sing, and rhymes that play off the page. One and two word sentences label baby’s day.
12 to 18 months Books for 12- to 18-month-olds are language primers with uncluttered pages picturing people, places, and things to point to. They tell about baby’s day—sleeping, eating, playing, dressing, bathing, helping. Books introduce concepts such as sharing, Oh-Oh! and No!. They may teach baby anatomy—Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes…
18 to 24 months
Books for 18- to 24-month-olds expand on the basics with farmyards full of animals and roadways busy with vehicles for naming. Pictures and simple verse teach the language of feelings and emotion.

Early favorites become repeat reads. Anatomy books teach more parts.
24 to 36 months
