Buzz

Wong, J. (2002). Buzz. Orlando: Voyager Books.
This book starts with a young boy hearing hearing a sound. It's a bee outside his window buzzing. Throughout the morning there are various things that make the buzz sound. The alarm clock, daddy shaving, the blender, the boy playing, all make a buzz. Finally, mom leaves the house going buzz just like the busy bee.
This book is a lot of fun. I could feel the busy excitement of this child's morning while I read it. All the different buzz sounds bring the book to life. I think that pre-k through first grade students would really enjoy this book. It has playful feel to it with all the different noises the one "buzz" sound can make.
