"What's-in-it" fun for the very young.

Celebrated children's writer Kathy Stinson explores "what's-in-what" concepts for young children. With a chorus of questions that encourage interaction, children will delight in playing with the language of spatial relationships, from a pocket holding a treasure to a spoon with a face reflected in it.

For one young girl, a day on the farm is full of familiar sights that lead to the unexpected. The barn has a horse in it... just like a house can have a "me" in it. A sock can't have a head in it, but it can have a toe in it. A pond can even have a splash in it. Best of all, when Mommy comes home, she has a blanket that has a wiggle in it -- a brand new baby.

Joining charming pictures and a satisfying story with language-learning ideas,A Pocket Can Have a Treasure in It will hold the attention of parents and children alike.

Industry Reviews

The simple text of A Pocket Can Have a Treasure in It has a comforting repetitive structure, but occasionally diverges from the pattern to add an element of surprise. The rural setting evokes simple pleasures -- such as hanging out the laundry with Dad -- and the story is satisfyingly circular. [Betteridge's] soft and sweet illustrations tell a story of their own. A Pocket Can Have a Treasure in It will captivate youngsters aged from about two to five, and so the conclusion is clear: your shelves should have this book on it!--Julie Faulkner,"ForeWord" (07/01/2008)
