Who Loves Boo?

A Hide-and-Seek Book

by Salina Yoon

Celebrate Valentine's Day with Boo the cat in this flocked die-cut board book by Salina Yoon, the master of seasonal board and novelty books.

Who Loves Boo? is a guessing game in board book form. In this follow-up to the successful Where's Boo?, very young readers will love searching for Boo's heart among heartfelt gifts and finding something unexpected instead. Each page offers a hint of the heart, but it isn't until the last page that readers will see the valentine given to Boo by his loving friends. Little ones will want to go back to the beginning and play all over again!

Fuzzy flocking on Boo, the heart on the front cover, and the red flocking on the last spread add depth and a tactile element to this die-cut board book--as well as extra value. Perfect for little hands!

Salina Yoon is a creator of many highly successful novelty board books and picture books for children.

A half-circle cutout shows part of a heart, which is hidden with other half-heart shaped objects, like a teacup handle and oblong lollypop. A novelty that's not a lift-the-flap, but gives the reader similar fun.

What a cute book! Babies and their caregivers will enjoy “Who Loves Boo?” over and over. The kitten illustration was particularly adorable.

[Raven Black]

What to say about Boo? They are a kitten looking for their heart. As you turn the pages (is this the heart? No... Is this the heart? No.....) you find different things that it could be (teacup, lollipop, etc.) At the end Yes! That is Boo's heart. It is red and pink and fuzzy. Our hide-and-seek book has turned into a touch book! (However, there is some fuzziness along the way, too). Fun illustrations, a short story and some fun with guessing makes this an active book. And while it is a Valentines themed book, it can also be an anytime read. A follow up to Where's Boo?

As board books go, this one fits so many important criteria for little ones. Quick, brightly colored, fun.

[Briony]

Cute and simplistic. Good book for toddlers to recognize and identify objects in changing settings.

Hide and Seek!

[Syntha Green]

Same concept as Where's Ellie? but looking for Boo's heart

[Erin]

Pretty confused by the title vs the content. Never answers the question. But cute shape book with good exposure to “behind”
