Wiggles and Waddle: Hello, Farm and Other Stories - A First Graphic Novel for Early Readers

Meet Wiggles the pig and Waddle the duck – two silly, curious, sometimes mischievous, but always endearing barnyard buddies. What adventures will they have with their farm friends today? Includes four short but engaging stories that your child will want to read again and again. First come along as Wiggles and Waddle take you for a tour of the farm they call home – from the best mud puddle for splashing to the tree that sometimes has apples (none today) – and meet some of their farm friends along the way! Next, it’s time for a pint-sized mystery. The Lady is baking cookies in the house, but as she lays them out to cool, one by one they keep disappearing! Using context clues, can you guess which silly critter gobbled each cookie? Then we meet Mama Hen and her three very, VERY busy chicks. They never stop moving! Are you able to find and count all three chicks in every scene? Finally, after some serious mud puddle splashing, it’s bath time for Waddle. But after cleaning off in the farm pond, he can’t seem to make it back to shore without getting dirty again. What will happen in this silly tale of opposites? Are older siblings diving into graphic novels and chapter books? Fear not! "Wiggles and Waddle" is here to bridge the gap between age groups, ensuring that younger siblings feel included in the reading fun. Featuring sturdy board pages and durable flaps to endure lots and lots of toddler love, this first graphic novel serves as the perfect introduction to a new world of storytelling. Designed with early and pre-readers in mind by using visual storytelling and minimal text to help tell the story, kiddos can seamlessly transition from board books to more advanced formats! Simple vocabulary and repetition of phrases are utilized to explore themes of feelings, friendship, and unconditional love, while also reinforcing early learning concepts like shapes, counting, and opposites. Follow the sequence of the panels (boxes) from left to right and top to bottom on each page. Think of tracing the letter “Z” on pages where there are multiple panels to help explain the sequence to kiddos. Check out the helpful diagram inside the book for more explanations! The first book in a planned series, toddlers and young children will immediately fall in love with these loveable farm animal characters and the silly and curious way they explore their world.
