¡Es maravilloso!
La verdad es que compré este libro por amazon un poco a ciegas, sin saber exactamente si me gustaría y me he llevado una gran sorpresa.
Lo compré para introducir el tema del tiempo en Social Science con mis alumnos. Es un libro genial, Maisy se levanta y abre las cortinas de casa para ver que día hace y en función del mismo planea diferentes actividades que hacer ese día.
Es un pop-up chulísimo, con ruedas giratorias, solapas... cada página incluye en el lateral tres o cuatro palabras de vocabulario y las ilustraciones son alucinantes, tiene unos colores muy muy vibrantes que seguro captarán toda la atención de los niños (o eso espero).

Fantastic book! I know it is targeted at older toddlers (so they know what to do and hopefully won't destroy it) but my 6 month old just LOVES this book! The bright colours, the movements, the fun lively story. She is captivated the whole way through which is rare for such a young baby. I'm sure she will eventually destroy it but for now, these Maisy science books are my favourite books to read to her.

I liked that this was a pop-up book my children didn't instantly destroy--not sure if it was the book's construction or that they are finally aging out of destroying pop-ups. The kids liked the different weather illustrations and had fun going through it several times on their own.

Fun, interactive look at different weather days.

This was a super cute pop-up book, unfortunately the library copy is feeling the abuse. I think it will be a lot of fun for story time read aloud but may be falling apart too much for that.

I'm not really a fan of Maisy, but I can see how this will appeal to the little ones.

Whatever the weather, Maisy knows how to have fun! Lift the flaps and pull the tabs to learn all about weather. Perfect for children 24 months and older.

A pull the tab interactive book where Maisy helps explain what the weather is for the day and what you should where. Perfect one on one or small group of toddlers and up.
