Winner of a 2024 Good Housekeeping Best Kids' Books Award!

Includes a special spot to attach your own photo of Mama! Babies and toddlers will learn to say "Mama!" and other first words with this adorable and fun-to-read board book created by an early speech expert!

Each page features:

• Simple words and "Mama" phrases that are easy for little ones to imitate, and can be used and practiced throughout daily routines
• Rhythm and rhyme to encourage repetition and help keep babies engaged, even before they can understand the text
• Real photographs that model correct mouth positions and support social emotional learning

Written by a speech-language pathologist, The I Can Say Mama Book uses a proven approach to teach little ones how to say "Mama!" Reading the book aloud helps caregivers easily model important aspects of communication for little ones--not only through sounds and words, but also with gestures, facial expressions and more!
