<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Baby Sam is ready to say her first word, but the adults in her life keep missing her pronouncement.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>Your Baby's First Word Will Be Dada</i> meets <i>Everybody Poops</i> in this silly story about a baby whose first word--POOP!--isn't getting the message across.</b> <p/> Everyone in Sam's family wants her to say <i>their</i> name for her first word. To convince her, Mama sings, Papa tells a story, and Nana draws. Even their neighbor Mr. Theotopolous gets in on the action by performing an epic poem. <p/> Sam definitely has something to say, something <i>urgent</i>, but how can she make her family stop thinking about themselves and <i>listen</i>? When all else fails, she may have to take drastic measures . . . . <p/> This sweetly silly story is read-aloud fun for the whole family, from parents who may end up laughing at themselves to kids who will cheer Sam on to her triumphant finale.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Children will delight in the scatological humor and fast-paced plot, while grown-ups will appreciate the scenes-from-real-life quest."--<i><b>School Library Journal</b></i><br><br>"[A] nifty, high-spirited bit of toddler turnabout."--<i><b>Booklist</b></i><br><br>"Cheeky....
