Accurate enough to satisfy an expert, yet simple enough for baby, this book explores the world of sound–what it is, how it's made, and how Baby hears it. Baby also learns that some ears use technological help, and some people use ways other than sound to communicate. Beautiful, visually stimulating illustrations complement age-appropriate language to encourage baby’s sense of wonder. Parents and caregivers may learn a thing or two, as well!
Ruth Spiro is an award-winning children's book author and freelance writer whose articles, essays, and stories have appeared in magazines and anthologies. Her debut picture book, Lester Fizz, Bubble-Gum Artist (Dutton), won awards from Writer's Digest and Willamette Writers and was a Bank Street College of Education Best Book of the Year.

Baby makes music! Music is made of sounds. Baby can't see the sounds, but she can hear them. 

Baby plucks the guitar string, making it wiggle very fast. This is called vibration.
