Language enrichment value of Jasper's beanstalk

I like this book for language therapy with preschoolers. Because it is very simple, with few words, it helps the child clue in to the new vocabulary which includes days of the week and some great verbs. I use it to teach regular past tense (Jasper planted, Jasper watered, etc.) and in a different setting present progressive (Jasper is planting, Jasper is watering...) The kids enjoy it and don't realize how much they are learning!
