In "A Purple Hippopotamus Pillow and Pink Penguin Sheets" you meet a nine year-old boy named Pete who attends his best friend's birthday party. Pete watches in fear as his buddy opens an
unwanted gift. Then, Pete's birthday arrives and he unwraps the very same undesirable purple hippo pillow and pink penguin sheets. This book is a fun read for all children! However, it was
designed more specifically to meet the needs of children with speech and language difficulties. Research has shown repetition of targeted sounds increases the likelihood correct speech will be
learned. Both parents and professionals can use the sing-song text to teach in a creative, interactive way!
