Baby Talk – English & Arabic Barefoot Books, Books4School Edition (reduced format)

Ages Birth & Up / Infant

Babies talk in all kinds of ways – and the people who love them talk back! This unique board book has been specially created for parents and older children to share with new babies, helping to lay the foundations for secure attachment and early language skills.

Each book is visually captivating and filled with joyful images of infants engaged in activities that support optimal development, especially in the domains of language and social-emotional development. A real strength is how the books illustrate the critical role of nurturing adults and their crucial role of interacting and engaging with infants in ways that involve developmentally enriching activities. These are just the type of book that we should be getting into the hands of all parents / caretakers, especially those from backgrounds where there are language and/or literacy challenges.
