Head Goes Bonk!
by Sharilyn DeVos-Ritacca


Head goes BONK! Hands go CLAP! Use your fingers, make them snap. Tickle belly, make it giggle, give your toes a little wiggle. It’s time to dance, clap, listen for sounds, and learn just what your body can do! Head Goes Bonk! is a playful, interactive rhyming book that encourages toddlers to move and get acquainted with their bodies. They’ll pretend to fly in the rain, imagine taking a speeding train surrounded by the glowing eyes of owls, and learn to give thanks to the Lord for their good food. Head Goes Bonk! makes children feel curious, confident, and connected to their bodies and their environment. The rhythm of the writing, along with the attractive pastel illustrations, lends itself to many repeat trips through its colorful, active pages.
