This book is so fun to read with children. You are able to engage the child in a whole new way, they even feel as if they are a main character in a book. This book also brings in the ideas of Design and Technology and gets the children to think about creativity in a whole new way.

Maisy AND flaps to lift? How can you go wrong? Maisy is always a hit in story time and the little ones have a blast looking for Maisy!

3.5 — Considering this book has like, 10 words total I feel silly rating it. I used to read this one to my sister, so reading it now almost 20 years later was sweet.

My ~1 year old loved this book. It took him a little to warm up to it, and then he loved flipping the flaps and playing peekaboo with the animals in Maisy's world. It also helped him quite a bit with fine muscle control. At first, he would open the flap but move his hand too far too fast and it would flap closed again. After a few weeks, he could open the flap and hold it open as long as he liked.

My toddler quite enjoyed this one a few months ago (14 or 15 months?), when he was going through his "where is...?" phase. It's a bit short, but the animals included are fun, even though we aren't familiar with the characters. (Anything with a chicken gets a thumbs up from my boy!)

My 2 year old and I picked it out from the library today.
Sadly a few of the flaps were retaped on or missing :-(
She enjoys any book with flaps or touch and feel sections it seems.

A cute lift and flap book with a favorite character.

Theodore has learned how to turn pages!
He loves opening the little flaps. And he tries to tuck his little wheelies inside the pages to hide them, like maisy.

my toddler loved to flip open the flaps and say NO while looking for maisy. he did rip one of the pages, but he did love looking for Maisy.

Poitsu osasi itse availla luukut. Eli ehkä nyt on aika käydä hakemassa kasa näitä luukkukirjoja.
