Let's be bees. LET'S BUZZ.
Let's be trees. LET'S RUSTLE.
Let's be the Earth. LET'S MAKE EVERY SOUND.

The only thing better than playing make-believe is playing make-believe with your favourite grown-up! Especially when that grown-up's imagination is as big as yours. With bright, bold crayon illustrations, rhythmic words and endless fodder for playing along, this is an interactive read-aloud picture book guaranteed to bring on the giggles and spark boundless creative play.

Busy endpapers full of creatures and natural marvels make useful prompts to extend the story with a variety of sounds. -- Julie Roach * The Horn Book *
