Reviews

[Barbara · Rating 3 out of 5]

Perfect for caregivers to share with their young charges, this board book features five flaps and five mirrors into which readers can peer in a peekaboo fashion. The flaps reveal four different friendly animals, including a fox, a badger, a wolf, and an owl, who are shown individually and then all together on the final flap. Repetitive language and adorable animal faces add to this book's charm as well as will the mirrors and any little face that looks into their surface.

Mirror under every flap.

Sturdy animal flaps reveal a clear mirror for baby to find/see themselves. Elsie approved.

[Therese Thompson · Rating 4 out of 5]

This one got lots of chuckles from Hudson as he peaked at each and every flip the flap mirror.

[Castor · Rating 4 out of 5]

A simple yet effective and enjoyable read for babies around 6 months who start to show interest in their reflections. The book engages them with four cute forest animal characters, repetitive text, large flaps, and a mirror on every other page. A song based on the "Finger Family" rhyme can be played by scanning the QR code on the back cover. It would be better if the flaps were made from felt rather than paper, so they were more resistant to tearing.
