A booty-ful guessing-game board book for little readers!

What butt? Which butt? Zoo ziddly do! What butt? This butt. Can you guess who?

From bestselling author of the wildly popular Butt or Face? series, comes the What Butt? board books, which will have your toddlers laughing, learning, and loving zoo animals, from pandas to hippos to tigers.

Each spread of What Butt? Zoo Animals features a real-life animal backside paired with a bouncy, read-aloud rhyme, inviting toddlers to identify the animal before the page-turn. The child then chimes in with the animal name and sounds: "It's a lion! ROAR. ROAR. ROAR." This interactive call-and-response structure develops cognitive skills and animal knowledge.

Like the first book in the series, What Butt? Farm Animals, this sturdy and satisfying product supports language development, sound recognition, object constancy, and prediction ability. It belongs in every toddler's library!
