Description: Making connections between images on a page and the real world is an important building block for any baby's communication skills, and these simple, solid-white sports figures, paired with bold and colorful sports balls, provide a great high-contrast experience for young developing eyes.

Review Quotes: " '3 2 1 GO!' shout the opening pages of this otherwise wordless board book, whose high-contrast images aim to grab the attention of youngest readers. On the spreads that follow, white-on-black silhouettes of athletes appear beside images of the balls their sports require; as a fun touch, a baby smiles at readers from one of the final pages, opposite a picture of a large beach ball on a bright green background. The lack of text creates an open-ended reading experience, allowing adults to ask children questions about the six sports introduced--golf, baseball, tennis, soccer, football, and basketball." --Publishers Weekly
