I thought I saw Elephant! By Lydia Nichols. BOARD BOOK. Templar, 2018. $8.  9781536205749

BUYING ADVISORY: PRE-K - ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

This is a slide and seek book which require a simple finger slide interaction from the reader. In this book an elephant is hiding. The pages take readers through a variety of forms of places at a park: the ice cream stand, a tree house, a slide, and more. Where is Elephant? The reader must slide the circle to find out.

Young readers will be fascinated by the slide and seek mechanism. I thought this book was just downright adorable with harmonious colors and lovely illustrations. I want the whole series for my little one.  The only reason I didn’t rate it as essential is because there really isn’t a plot, which makes it a fun toy but not necessarily a must have book.
Edit: My 10 month old daughter LOVES this book and plays with it all the time, figuring out the sliders and looking at the pages.
