Sweet interactive book about the one that stand out. Memories of Sesame Street and "Which one doesn't belong". Pictures can be a bit dizzying.

I wish this came in a big book for storytime!

Oh this is funny, Squirt is one of those kids who refuses to be tested. So when I tell him to look for the one that's different, he finds it, but won't show me, tries to hide it, or even tells me he can't find it (but when I try to turn the page he quickly points to it)! What is thatabout?!! Makes me laugh, anyway.

Stunning illustrations but because of the size and detail, is better for one-on-one sharing, and not with a group.

This was the favorite of the books I read to Alena today. I like that it's not just a "spot the difference" book but also has descriptive rhymes. The illustrations are simple and the differences appropriately challenging. Alena enjoyed my happy moments of discovery.

Lemos a edição da Brinque-Book: Apenas um é diferente!

[Suzanne Lorraine Kunz Williams · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved this spotting book. Wow did I ever find some pages hard, but many pages my little Zander who is 4 could do with the hint each page gave. Funny how it's so hard to see things and then once you see them you can always see them. It's a perfect book to talk about how not everything is always what you think.

** Talking Points - Finding some of the odd ones out were hard to find, and then were easy to see. What have you done that was hard and first and then easy? At first glance every one of the creatures on the pages look the same, but they aren't. What else in your life has been different than it seemed at first? What has been the same as it seemed at first?

** Essential Oil Pairing Tip - Need something to boost your brain power? Try doTERRA's InTune or doTERRA's Thinker. Roll it on to your forehead by your hairline or just a little below. You're going to love the way they smell!

The Odd One Out is a rhyming picture book that interactive. This book talks about each animal and rhymes what they look like. They then say something to to go and find what on the other page what they are talking about.

I like this book because the pictures are great, but also its interactive. Students or kids can read about the animals, like it's a song and look for the object that the author wrote about.

I would use this in my classroom because kids could take a break from school work, and try to find all the objects the author is talking about on the pages. This also would be a great tool for teaching poetry to kids while having fun.

Zoek op een pagina met bíjna dezelfde dieren die ene die er net even anders uitziet, of die iets anders doet. Leuk boek, maar na twee keer lezen had ik voor elke pagina al onthouden naar welk dier ik moest wijzen. Wat dat betreft zijn er andere zoekboeken die me langer hebben beziggehouden. Misschien meer een bibliotheekboek dan een koopboek.

This series is a great quick dip-in for kids. I've found it works well for around ages 5-8 who need that 1-2 minute break with something to focus their attention for emotional regulation. Other than that, kids just really enjoy search-and-find.

[Breana · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is fun and interactive. The text is catchy and my girls enjoyed finding the "odd one out" on every page.

[Jennifer · Rating 3 out of 5]

Gorgeous art. Gutter sometimes got in the way of finding "the odd one out."

[Connie T. · Rating 3 out of 5]

I really didn't "read" this one, just focused on finding the different animal. It's harder than you think when you don't know what makes them different! Lovely art work.

Charming illustrations! A fun challenge for a bit older of kids

[Christine Kallner · Rating 5 out of 5]

So fun! Love the illustrations and accompanying rhyming text.

[DB in Richmond · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love this spotting book by Teckentrup. The rhyming stanzas for what you are to spot are what makes the book.

[Kelly · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not too easy...not too hard. Nice spotting the difference book.

[Robin · Rating 3 out of 5]

A little tough for my young 4 year old but he was able to find most with some prompting.

[LittleE · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a fun book! We love the rhyming and she just loves "finding" things in books. We read this at least 3x a week - she's so sad to return it to the library.

[Sally · Rating 4 out of 5]

A fun book to read while snuggled on the lounge together.

[Kaitlyn · Rating 4 out of 5]

We love the word choice, rhyming, and the illustrations. Spotting things in the pictures was lots of fun.

[Kris · Rating 4 out of 5]

Such a fun hidden picture book, and I personally find the illustrations much more appealing than something like Where's Waldo?

[Pinky · Rating 5 out of 5]

A colorful assortment of animals and each page turned opens to a new thing to find.

[Jeimy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Some of these are easy, but the illustrations are so gorgeous I had to give it five stars.

[Kathryn · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very fun read I love search and find books plus illustrations delightful

[Erika West · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book for a class of five year olds as a circle time group activity! The book provides a launch pad for a discussion on animals while teaching good observation skills.

[Nancy · Rating 4 out of 5]

So much fun...it did take me two tries to find the panda who lost his/her bamboo!

[Debra · Rating 4 out of 5]

There are clues to the illustrations encouraging readers to notice differences throughout this book.

At last, the odd one is owl.
