That's a Rap! An Action Rhyme Book is a fun little poem that explores play through rhyme and motion. The repetitive verse will engage babies and toddlers and encourage them to get up and move around. Barefoot children and outdoor themes are a subtle reminder of the pure joys of playing outside. The animals depicted are a reminder of the relationships we share with our pets and the other animals in the world.
