Briefly speaking, this lift-the-flap book is laugh-out-loud fun, and educational, too!
This hilarious lift-the-flap features animals and the underwear they wear! Kids will roar with laughter as they lift each flap and reveal boxers on a horse, furry undies on a crocodile, leafy green bloomers on a sheep, and more. We save the best for last, though--on the final spread, an e

Bright and colourful with hardly any words but expressive pictures and flaps revealing extremely silly and unexpected underwear, this book would be sure to amuse any three year old learning to dress themselves.
We own this one and it's so fun to read to groups of kindergartners. You let them come up one page at a time and open the flap to discover what kind of underwear the animal is wearing. Then they giggle like there's not tomorrow when they find the fun surprise at the end. You'll have to read it!

In the UK this book has the alternative title: What Colour Are Your Knickers? US: What Color is Your Underwear?
This short lift the flap book doesn't have much text, and doesn't tell much of a story, but is a lot of fun none the less. A question is posed about the colour of an animals underwear, then lifting the flap provides a rhyming answer. 'What colour are your knickers Horse Ned? They're red! Other animals featured are a turtle, a crocodile, a spider, a cow, a sheet and an elephant.

A very basic book, the main fun is lifting the pop-up flaps to see what picture is behind them, but the actual story isn’t all that great IMO
A simple concept and rhyming text accompanied by bright, colorful illustrations so you would think this would be a great group read aloud, right? Um. no. While I'm sure it would have kids and parents laughing out loud, I'm just not comfortable reading a book at story time which encourages kids (who might not know any better) to be asking others to see their underwear. I love the lift-the flap interaction and the pictures are hilarious and fun, but the target audience is one that should be learni

I used this one during a "colors" family storytime on 7/10/18. It was a HUGE hit with the kids and their parents. I will definitely be using it again!

Colors. Underwear. Rhyming. Short. Cute.
I think it's a great book for children.

great
cute and funny
This is a book that needs to come with a warning. If you’re reading to a young audience, there is a slight chance that when you announce the title, “What colour are your knickers?” you might be flashed by members of your audience who really want to answer your question. (This has happened to one librarian I know!)
Don’t be put off, this is a great simple story to read even the youngest audience. Each animal in turn is asked about the colour of their knickers. The words are simple, but the concept ...more

This hilarious lift-the-flap features animals and their underwear! Kids will roar with laughter as they lift each flap and reveal cherry red boxers on a horse, furry yellow undies on a crocodile, wooly green bloomers on a sheep, and more! We save the best for last, though--on the final spread, an elephant is hiding behind a large leaf...for good reason. He forgot to put on any underwear! This is a fun way to teach colors...and the importance of wearing your drawers!
Rhyming text, lift-the-flaps, and bright whimsical art combine to create an attention-grabbing book. The center-fold page features a spider—the perfect place to stop this story and pick up the next one.
really funny book for kids
My 3 year-old grandson loves this book.
This book is a hit solely because of the panty humor factor. The mere mention of undergarments is all it takes to get chuckles sometimes.
This lift the flap book is a family favorite. I have read it in my kids classrooms year after year.
Very fun! Lots of laughs from the kiddos.
Such a cute one and it definitely gets a giggle out them! Perfect to tie into potty training.
OOOOh La La! Don't get caught without it!

Funny, funny, funny, with lift flaps; great for reading aloud to large or small groups.
What Colour Are Your Knickers has hardly any words but has flaps in the book that reveal an array of animals underwear. Children in the EYFS will be really amused by this book.
I love the interactive flaps in this book!
My kids loved this book and it was a fun way to learn colors.
Another of those books to get kids reading. Very funny, catchy and fun for boys and girls.
The kids never get tired of this book, it is way funny and great way to learn colors
One of my favourites to read to the kids at the library
It's a fairly silly book but I think little children would enjoy it, both topic and the underwear-revealing flaps.

One somewhat tortured rhyming pattern, otherwise cute/funny, storytime option.
