Tails, toes, noses — and a hint of each animal peeking out — let preschoolers guess who’s hiding.Whose tail? Whose toes? Whose twitchy nose? Who is that hiding behind a big hunk of cheese? What has a cold wet nose, a big pink snout, or a long gray trunk? In this lift-the-flap book for the very young, simple, repetitive text and bold, bright illustrations combine to make a funny guessing-game of a book.
Sally Symes has designed, written, and illustrated many books with numerous talented partners. She lives in England with her husband, two children, and Bumble the cat.
Little N loves this book. The flaps make it somewhat interactive and the sturdy board pages save me the worry of him tearing up a library book. There is repetition throughout the story, and good topics to reinforce (body parts, we also throw in animal sounds).
