My First Lift the Flap Animals Board Book

Posted on September 5th, 2009 in DK | No Comments »


My First Lift the Flap Animals Board Book


So what is hiding in the nest?
Can a snake eat a whole egg?
How does a Chameleon change color?

While some children do get to see all these fun things in nature, some never will. As a child, I would put a Chameleon on various objects and watch it change color.

Here, the flap opens and you can see an instant change. The artic fox makes a stunning change from summer to winter and looks much more friendly in his new fluffy white coat.

Being of an inquisitive nature, children will want to read this book again and again. This book also has quite a bit of humor.

Like: "Why is a Kangaroo like a ball?
Answer: They both bounce.

Or there are rhyming words like "clinging and swinging. A frog does a belly flop into a pond. There are 45 flaps that reveal how each animal lives. Everything from baby birds to lizards.

I hope this will be an introduction to discovery and that you will take your children to a zoo and out into nature to show them some of these wonderful animals in real life.
