Me and my son, we adore lift-the-flap Very First Questions And Answers board books from Usborne. This encyclopedia-like board book explains single topic (stars) in easily understandable and attractive way. It makes teaching your little ones a lot of fun. Add adorable illustrations and we have a winner!

This is a current favourite with Miss Two. She likes stars and she likes books with flaps. Daddy and Aunty Nikki like reading it because the words don't bore them to tears, which is always good when you have to read it several times a day.

This is a fun book that is very interactive. My nephew loved the flip open tabs and learning new facts. I even learned a fact or two. Beautifully illustrated, fun and engaging. This book would be appropriate for those who are at picture book level (age 3 to 4) up to early readers (age 6 to 7).

Very simple lift the flap book about the stars that does not have a place on my shelf.

I got it from the library and it is certainly well made but it doesn't really offer anything to learn.

I get that this one is for babies who like the pictures and lifting the flaps but you can buy Lift-The-flap Colours or even Lift-the-Flap General Knowledge. Do these books have flaps? Check. Pretty pictures? Check. Will they still be interesting to read in the next 3 years? Yes and that's the real difference here.

My advice for buying for babies is go for simple story books but skip ahead on the educational books. You will always be there to explain after all.

Wat zijn sterren? Tekst: Katie Daynes. Illustraties: Marta Álvarez Miguéns.

Oh wat een tof boekje! Het is mooi én leerrijk. En het heeft flapjes waarachter je veel kan ontdekken! Wat zijn sterren is een klein kartonboekje om samen te lezen, voor te lezen, zelf te lezen. Via de tekst én de illustraties leer je alles wat je van sterren wil weten, op basisniveau.

Je leert welke dingen we een ster noemen, dat het enorme bollen licht zijn, dat we ze niet kunnen zien als het bewolkt is, dat vallende sterren geen sterren zijn en nog zo veel meer.

De tekeningen zijn enorm lief en schattig én divers. Dit is een boekje dat in elke kinderkast hoort. Omdat je niet vroeg genoeg kan beginnen met leren, zeker op zo een toffe manier. Een pareltje om te koesteren!

This book is very colorful, and the pages are covered with pictures. I like that the drawings stick out more than the words. This book is very informative and interesting for the reader to learn about stars. I like that this book has two friends exploring the stars together to make it an adventure. One cool feature about this book is that it has flaps to flip up to search for more information or clues. These flaps give students fun activities to do during their reading and keep them engaged.

COSA SONO LE STELLE? di Katie Daynes e Martha Alvarez Miguéns. Un coloratissimo albo cartonato con alette pensato per scoprire e apprendere la bellezza delle stelle e dell'universo in modo semplice, giocoso e coinvolgente. Da 4 anni <3 https://ilmondodichri.com/cosa-sono-l...

I thought the illustrations were really detailed and went well with what the story is about. When reading this book I really liked on the one page where it says "can you see a bull", this is a good interaction book to do during read aloud.

This book is best suited for younger children as its content is quite simple but still raises questions for them to consider. I love the aspect of the flaps as it makes it more interactive and keeps their attention more.

What are Strars published in 2017 falls under infromational books because this answers many questions about stars, how they are formed, what are they made of and many more. ages 3-7. 4/5

Hallo ihr Süßen💕
Dieses Klappen Bilderbuch, ist für die kleinsten Leser unter und gedacht, jedes Kind wird hier vieles entdecken und Erforschen könne. Ich hatte sehr viel Spaß beim Lesen der Geschichte und beim öffnen der einzelnen Klappen und auch als Erwachsener, kann man hier noch so einiges Lernen! "Was sind Sterne?", das ist die Leitfrage dies kleinen Büchleins und durch viele Klappen und kurzen Informativen Texten, können die Kinder dies spielerisch entdecken und Erforschen. Es ist zwar ab 3 Jahren, aber ich finde dafür enthält es verdammt viele interessante Informationen und schon alleine das Suchen und Öffnen der einzelnen Klappen macht unglaublich viel Spaß! Eine große empfehlung! Lieben Gruß Sonja/Shaaniel

Olen aivan täysin hurahtanut näihin lapsille tehtyihin luukku-tiedekirjoihin. Kirja on suunnattu 3-6-vuotiaille, mutta kyllä nämä asiat taaperoakin kiinnostivat. Tieteelliset faktat ovat pelkistetty mukavasti lapsen ikään ja kehityskauteen sopivaksi.

The best stage of parenting is sharing of old favourites with a child that has not read them before.
