My 2.5 year old daughter picked out this classic as one of her bedtime stories tonight. On just about every page she would excitedly exclaim, "That's a dump truck!" and I had a heck of a time holding back my laugh.
Why? Well, she has no problem pronouncing that's and a, but she leaves the "p" sound off of dump, and she pronounces "tr" like an "f." Got it? Yikes. Looks like I need to try coaching the "tr" sound again!
I've heard her try to say truck many times before (in her own way), but this is the first time I've heard her try to say dump truck. She even puts the same emphasis on both dump and truck...
