Reviews

we bought a box of 4 concepts: colours, counting, opposites and up & down. My 22 month old son lovesss these books so much especially COLOURS, he already knows all of the colours in this book plus 7 other colours I've taught him from other sources. But, this book was the one which made him learn the basic colours :D

David A. Carter has fun bug pop-up books. This is a great one for learning basic colors. The pages are incredibly simple, perfect for young readers. For example, the first page has a pop-up red beetle and only the words “red bug”. This is repeated for blue, green, purple, yellow, orange, and multicolored bugs.

My nephew is just getting so big. He's 9, almost 10. I'm really missing the young kid who wasn't addicted to the Nintendo Switch and he loved robots and all kinds of weird things. I still love him dearly, but I miss reading to him. So, I got this book thinking about him.

Nephew loved the pop-up books and he would open each page over and over trying to figure out how it worked.

This book has no story, it's just colored cute bugs that pop-up. It's a work of art.

Lapozós könyv, ami a színeket tanítja...bogarakon keresztül. Annyira valószínűleg nem szerettem volna kicsiként sem, nem a kedvenc tematikám. De ezen túl igényes könyv, minden oldalon jól meghatározható színű az állat és a háttér. Illetve az állat kiugrik térbe a lapról, mindig pluszpont a kicsiknél.
