(2) PS Young extraterrestrial Blip explores Earth with Zot, a device that identifies objects. For example, when Blip encounters a pink mud-splattered mound with a curlicue tail, Zot cautions, "Blip, stop!" "Zot, wazzzzzdot?" Blip asks. A page turn gives listeners a chance to guess: "PIG!" Blip's inexperience reflects preschoolers', and they'll get a kick out of knowing more than this blue visitor with the oversize football-shaped head.
