Description

"The Boy Who Said Baa" tells the story of a little boy with a vocabulary consisting of one word. His parents are concerned, and mean people make fun of him. But he's not quite ready to speak more words. Then Christmas arrives, and when his church Nativity play dissolves into chaos, he saves the day with his one word and makes a joyful noise heard around the world. Written in humorous verse by Judy Dryden with charming illustrations by acclaimed British artist Rosie Brooks, "The Boy Who Said Baa" is a sweet story of personal triumph, inspiring not only to children with delayed speech issues, but to any child struggling with feeling "different."
