Greg's Gecko, Kai, has never been to the ocean even though they live in Hawaii! Determined to take his beloved pet on an ocean adventure, Greg comes up with a creative way to show the undersea world to Kai in this early speech sound series book from Phonological and Articulation Children's Books. Not only does this book work on K and G sounds, but it also provides children with early prediction and problem-solving practice within the story. Created by a Speech-Language Pathologist, this book is filled with over 140 opportunities to hear or practice K and G sounds. As with all of the Speech Sound Series books, it includes a "Helpful Tips for Parents" page with easy to use speech and literacy tricks for developing minds! This makes a wonderful gift for any preschool, kindergarten, or first-grade teacher, speech therapist, or young child. Your purchase of this book supports a small business.
