On each spread of this board book, totz will see the tail
end and the nose of an animal character that covers both pages. However, its
mid-section (and the middle of the spread) is covered by an environmental clue. Totz are also provided with 3 question-clues. For instance, in one of my favorite spreads:
Whose tail?
Whose toes?
Whose big gray nose?
(There’s a jungle shown in the middle of the spread, going
across the middle fold.)
(Turn ½ page flap to remove environmental clue and reveal
entire animal.)
Hippo!
A bright, colorful, clever book that will keep totz guessing
and turning the pages all the way to the last spread, where the character is a
baby.
