SAFARI

"Hello! Jambo!" Dion Graham's big, friendly voice brings great enthusiasm to a child's visit to the African savannah. What animals will pass by? What will each animal be doing? From elephants to hippos to lions, the animals involve themselves in activities ranging from spraying to eating and grazing. The simple text and patterned responses to the story's questions will encourage listeners' participation--"reading," if you will. Graham's clear voice and leisurely pace contribute to the child friendliness of this production, as do the gentle music and animal sounds. Poring over the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC photographs will further enrich the safari experience. A.R. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2015]
