This is a so-called interactive children’s picture book where the reader is given instructions to do with the book that creates the action on the next page. Press Here was the best, and now the standard which I measure these books against. While the illustrations are lovely and top-notch, the story is a bit long and the instructions don’t seem to be as playful as the standard bearer. For that reason, while I like this book, I don’t think it’ll have staying power and won’t be remembered in the next few weeks months and years.… (más)

Interactive works only with a physical copy and involves movement of the book as directed. Not interactive in the computer sense. So much the better, less intrusive, and ever so much more fun!
The story is written AND illustrated by Anita Bijsterbosch. The storyline is simple, and the illustrations are fun, simple, colorful, and delightfully imaginative.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, but especially to a school or public library!
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Clavis Publishing via NetGalley. Thank you!… (más)
