Description

A book of sounds where your hands make the noise!

Flap, flap, flap and a butterfly flaps its wings.

Knock, knock, knock—who is at the door?

Boom, boom, boom... a boy plays a drum with all his energy!

Help tell a story of noise and sound—no batteries required, just your hands on each side of the cover.

Praise for Clap, Clap!

A truly toddler-friendly pairing of clapping and counting. […] Younger children will immediately and delightedly key in to the percussive possibilities […] an open-and-shut winner.
—Kirkus Reviews

A hardback cover and rounded pages are useful for younger page turners, while older ones will contemplate the quirky people and animals composed of geometric shapes illustrated in the brightest of primary colors. The blocky designs and text demand interactive listening, encouraging kids to stand up and move.
