Perennial Favorite

My grandchildren, ages 4 and 18 months, never tire of thisbook! It holds their interest more than any other book they own. Although the recommended age is 4-8, at mcuh earlier ages they loved the vivid colors, shapes, and illustrations. The cut-out shapes fascinate them, whether for a game of peek-a-boo, or the action involved in flipping the page and seeing a different picture behind each cutout. As my 4-year-old learns to read, he now enjoys the book at a different level but just as much. The illustrations are beautiful and even hold my interest with repeated readings, something I can't say for other children's books. In instituting values, we also like the message of diversity, which the children perceive easily as they recognize and relate to the hands of people of different colors. If you're only buying one children's book as a gift, for the children's own library, or to keep for your granchild's visits, this is an absolute must for ages 1 to 8.
