Board Book

Title: The Pout-Pout Fish

Author: Deborah Diesen

Pictures By: Dan Hanna

This board book is simply adorable and even incorporates a little song throughout the book! I think it would be a perfect read aloud book that would be fun to teach the students the song to sing along to during the reading. It also utilizes rhyming throughout the book which can be used to teach students about words that rhyme. It does, however, use some big vocabulary words that may be tough for younger students. These vocabulary words in the book can be used by the teacher to teach the students some new big words that they may not be familiar with. The illustrations are very colorful and fun as well!

Rating: 4/5

While this book is adorable and has a nice song and rhyming aspect, I do think that some of the vocabulary is a little too tough for younger students, so it might have to used strictly as a read aloud book until the students learn the new words and what they mean in order to understand the book completely!
