This delightful poem with art from renowned illustrator Tomie dePaola is a perfect first book for sharing with young children. Crickets creak. Mice squeak. Sheep baa. But I SPEAK! Three children lead us through a menagerie of animals and the sounds they make. Young children won't be able to resist roaring, hooting, and neighing along! * "DePaola's exuberant illustrations in his best folk-art style will have kids joining in and shouting out the words."--Booklist, starred review
