I’m thrilled to be participating in the blog tour for Two! by Tia Perkin hosted by I Am A Reader as I have finally stumbled upon the perfect gift for any and every family with a two year old.
Review
An absolutely spot-on, laugh-out-loud, heartfelt account of a day in the life of an energetic toddler. From the delightful rhymes to the fun illustrations and clever scenes, TWO! will charm anyone that has ever encountered a two-year-old. I read the book with my own toddler who smiled knowingly at many of the scenes while I cringed and chuckled alongside him. The vivid, contemporary illustrations are a perfect accompaniment to the little one’s antics. And the repetition of terms like “Up! Up!” and “Crash! Crash!” sounded very familiar. A nod to the author/illustrator for the professional look and feel of the book from the binding and weight of the board book pages to the solid rhyming throughout the story. Recommended, especially as a gift for anyone with a two-year-old child.

Praise for the Book
“Tia does an awesome job in this book capturing the funny antics of a two year old and putting them on paper in a way that is funny for your child and even more funny for mom and dad!…If you want a cute book to read to your child(ren) and get a good laugh yourself (maybe cry a little because of your frustration? LOL!), this is a really cute one for the whole family. This book has made it to the frequently read shelf!”
“It’s a book I don’t mind having to read to my daughter over and over and over and over again. Every toddler’s library should include this book. Well done!”
“”Two” is ingenious. Ostensibly a child’s board book, it looks like one, feels like one, and reads like one with its primary vocabulary and rhyme. And yet anyone who’s been a parent or sibling of a two-year-old will recognize the characteristic behaviors, grimace at the memories of them all, and then smile. You can’t help but smile, perhaps in relief that you did survive this year.”
Tia Perkin is a three-time Emmy-Nominated Graphic Artist and Arizona native. She wrote this book for her now three-year-old twin sons. “Two!” is her first book.
