This is the latest entry in a long-running, popular board book series. The themes are generally focused on animals, although there are holiday and vehicle titles as well. This particular title includes various baby animals, although there aren't really any differences between them and adult animals.
The covers are paper over board and the pages are thin cardboard. Each spread features a simple landscape with the text "Where's the ___?" and a felt flap to pull down showing the animal. This title includes a puppy, mouse, duckling, and bunny. The last spread asks "And where are you?" and the felt flap reveals a small mirror. The art includes simple patterns and bright colors.
Verdict: There's nothing particularly stand-out about this particular volume, but it's worth noting when new titles in this series are released - they are not particularly sturdy, so need to frequently be replaced with new titles. However, they are so popular and suited to infants and toddlers that they are worth purchasing. Make sure to add this and other recent releases from the series to brighten your board book collection for spring.
