Dit Dier Hier

Dit dier hier is a warm, accessible and playful picture book by Rian Visser, with 30 guessing rhymes about animals. The book contains short, simple verses that invite young children to listen and look along with the reader and guess which animal is being described.

The rhymes are deliberately easy to follow: each verse names recognizable features such as sounds, movements and appearance. The rhyme lets children join in actively and guess the animal themselves. That makes Dit dier hier not only fun, but also especially good for language development, vocabulary and a love of language.

The colorful illustrations by Iris Deppe support the text and help children connect words and pictures. Thanks to the sturdy paper and high-quality finish, the book is perfect for repeated use at home, in childcare or in toddler groups.

This book was written especially for young children from 18 months and for children who could use some extra language support, for example where low literacy plays a role. An accessible, loving book that turns reading aloud into a game you play together.

• 30 short guessing rhymes about animals
• Encourages language development and interactive reading aloud
• Very suitable for young children and language support
• Sturdy, high-quality edition with colorful illustrations
