What Happened and Why?

What Happened and Why? is an interactive book that encourages children to think critically by asking questions like "What?" "Where?" and "Why?" It helps them develop reasoning and inference skills while expanding their vocabulary and comprehension. Created by an autism expert, the book uses proven methods to support early literacy skills.

The book includes 18 colorful, Velcro-backed pictures that correspond to simple sentences. Each sentence prompts children to think about the events in a story and answer related questions. For example, “What did he mop? Where did he mop? Why?” You can even extend the activity by asking questions like, “Where else could they mop?”

Made with durable laminated pages and Velcro-backed pictures, the book is designed for repeated use. It’s bound with loose-leaf binder rings, so you can easily reorder or remove pages as necessary.
