Pacifier by Alice Le Henand and Thierry Bedouet - ADVISABLE

Pacifier
by Alice Le Henand, illustrated by Thierry Bedouet. 
BOARD BOOK Twirl (Chronicle Books), 2020. $13. 9782408024611 

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre K - ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH 

Little Croc is asked to leave his pacifier home so he doesn't lose it on his walk; Little Kangaroo needs to leave hesr in the cubby until naptime; Little Monkey is getting too big, now that he has a baby brother; Little Bear feels it's time to say bye-bye, and Little Cat can't be understood with a pacifier in her mouth. All of the children have positive responses, and the cute illustrations change to show before and after. 

Originally published in French and translated into English by Wendeline A. Hardenberg, this adorable story is so much fun to play with. Through a pull tab the picture changes from with the pacifier to without. Although it's a great lesson if your child needs it, the cuteness of this board book isn't lost on those who just want a cute, heavy duty interactive board book.
