The Look Book is purely a book for observation. The first page is all black, with a circle-shaped hole cut in the middle, allowing the a small part of a photo on the next page to show through. The circular cut-out functions as a focal point, forcing the reader to look at a small area of detail, but without showing the reader what she is looking at specifically. Only when she turns the page does the reader understand what the subject of the image is.

This wordless book allows children to guess what's on the next page through a peephole. And then you get to see what it is! Great conversation starter and imagination spurrer.
very simple. no words. includes two pictures of each thing we are looking at in detail. circle cut outs every other page.
Probably best as a lap read. It worked in Bunny Hop, but one on one each child would have more time to look at the pictures.

I loved guessing what was going to be in the circle! Easily kept my interest, and I think kids would love it.
