Books with Lots of Learning to Listen Sounds

The Learning to Listen Sounds are one of the first things a parent learns when introduced to Auditory-Verbal Therapy.  Therapists with a caseload of many new listeners repeat these sounds dozens of times a day.  While a box full of Learning to Listen Sound toys is great, pairing these sounds and toys with a literacy experience is even better!  The following is a list of some of my favorite books that are filled with Learning to Listen Sounds:
