Olivia Owl's Peek-and-Find Adventure is a lovely book about Olivia Owl trying to find an owl friend to play with. Other creatures are hiding behind the flaps who then join in Olivia's quest to find other owls. Little kids love finding the animals hiding behind the flaps and the illustrations are beautiful.

buku pop up untuk anak anak, tentang bobi dan proses pencarian teman temannya.
asyik juga buat ngajarin anak-anak tentang pertemanan, kerja sama, tolong menolong dan tentu saja nama nama hewan.

This book is a good way to teach children about friendship. Also, it keeps the reader involves by having flaps throughout the book.
