Paper Peek Animals by Chihiro Takeuchi - OPTIONAL


Paper Peek Animals by Chihiro Takeuchi.  BOARD BOOK  Candlewick Press, 2019. $15. 9781536211498 

BUYING ADVISORY: PREK – OPTIONAL  

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE  

This search and find book highlights different places throughout the world and their animals.  Each place is introduced by a die-cut and as you turn the page there are five different types of animals that are hidden.  At the end, there is a world map showing the locations. 

Search and find books are fun engaging ways to read with kids and the animals will be appealing to little readers.  My only concern when dealing with a search book intended for the board book aged reader, is that some of the animals face different directions than what is depicted in the key, which can be confusing. Cute idea and fun one -time reading, so good for a library if your search and find books are a hit, but not necessarily for a personal library.
