Turn the pages, lift the flaps and see if you can guess who's hiding. Colourful and fun with Nick Sharratt's bold, bright illustrations, this is a simple novelty board book for the very young. With lively rhythmic read-aloud text, little children will love guessing who's hiding over the page.
Nick Sharratt is the author-illustrator of numerous books for children, including The Foggy, Foggy Forest and Dinosaurs’ Day Out. He grew up in Suffolk, Nottinghamshire and Manchester, with his four siblings. He attended Manchester Polytechnic (now called Manchester Metropolitan University) where he completed an art foundation course. He was trained in graphic design at St. Martin's School of Art and took his later inspiration from the pop and graphic art of the 1960s, which he experienced as a child. He lives in Brighton, England.
I like the concept of this one - clues to who is hiding on each page; plus, there's a female astronaut! But I'm not sure why the pattern changes with the last page - babies wear booties...oh well. Cute book.
