The Wild Week by Teresa Porcella and Carmen Queralt - OPTIONAL

The Wild Week by Teresa Porcella and Carmen Queralt, translated from Spanish by Daniela Escobar, BOARD BOOK Barefoot Books, 2020, $9. 9781782859758

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre K - OPTIONAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

What starts with a chicken on Monday, laying an egg (in the kitchen) turns into a wild week of animals hanging out in the house doing human things - cuddling pillows, drawing, wearing a scarf and other things all so they can play together at the end of the week. 

This clever lift the flap board book turns into a guessing game - - where did the koala draw? Where did the bird build a nest? Where did the Skunk comb his hair? While the kids will like lifting the flap - the content felt random, it was different rooms in the house. Not sure I'll be buying this one.
