{Book Review + Free Printables for AAC Core Vocabulary} Mouse by Zebo Ludvicek
.
A hungry mouse discovers the alphabet, nibble by nibble, in this playful tale. When the letter M comes upon a hungry little mouse with a delicious-looking cherry, he can’t help but ask for a bite. The mouse reluctantly agrees, only for the M to devour the entire thing! In exchange, the M offers the mouse some of itself, but after a few bites the M has suddenly become an N. So begins the mouse’s journey through the many letters of the alphabet thanks to some creative nibbling and imaginative illustrations from debut author/illustrator Zebo Ludvicek.
.
What I love about this book: It is fun to read aloud, has bold illustrations and has several opportunities for modeling core vocabulary for AAC.
.
Core vocabulary for AAC:
• have
• not
• more
• all
• me
• like
• look
• can
• up
• see
• here
• go
• no
• you
.
Here is a free printable 4 page PDF of the symbols for that Core Vocabulary in the LAMP Words For Life, Speak For Yourself, Proloquo2Go & Snap + Core First apps to help during aided language input (modeling) during shared reading activities:
.
I may also program a page for this book in the TouchChat with WordPower 60 Basic pageset since it has templates for early childhood books.
