This rhythmic I-spy journey to school through various landscapes is the perfect introduction to colors, modes of transport, and of course, music! The jaunty text, Siobhan Bell s colorful hand-stitched illustrations and the accompanying Music CD by popular singer Fred Penner are sure to get children singing along happily. The I-Spy theme encourages reader/listener interaction, while the cumulative, repetitive text helps build sequencing skills. We All Go Traveling By is ideal for read-aloud and music and movement activities.
"Even the youngest children are sure to join in with the many repetitions in this upbeat I-Spy themed verse." --Chicago Parent

This is a wonderful book for children, and a great find for teachers. It has predictable, rhythmic text, a cumulative series of vehicles (always a favorite), fun sounds to make, and neat pictures. The toddlers I work with and the first graders my daughter teaches all love it. The CD with Fred Penner is a real treat, too!

My two-year-old loves this book as well as the music CD that accompanies it. The illustrations are colorful and engaging, and the song (sung by Winnipegger Fred Penner) is catchy and easy to learn. I recently recommended that our preschool purchase a copy.

The illustrations are very interesting and the song is really catchy. The whole family is now fans of Fred Penner. It's not only for the kids, you'll even sing it to yourself in the bathroom. We are going to get more sing a long titles sung by him.
