Editorial Reviews

In this clever, multicultural "peek-a-boo" board book, babies and toddlers can lift a flap to find out the answer to questions such as "Where are baby's eyes?" ("Under her hat!") Round-faced, engaging babies of different nationalities are illustrated with warm skin tones and are dressed in brightly-colored clothing. One holds a cup over her mouth, another has his hands hidden under the bubbles in his bath, and one has his feet tucked behind his cat. Simple yet appealing, this will allow toddlers to show off their knowledge of the human body and the clever flaps will delight babies. 2000, Little Simon/Simon & Schuster, . Ages 4 mo. to 2. Reviewer: Cherri Jones

Children's Literature

Younger kids will delight in the surprises hidden inside this board book. Flaps lift up to reveal a baby's eyes, feet, mouth, bare belly, and hands-and a fetching face peeks back from every page. It's as fun as a game of peekaboo.
