Surprise! Slide and Play Shapes by Elsa Fouquier. BOARD BOOK. Twirl/Editions Milan, 2021. $15. 9782408024697
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
A cat goes on a fun adventure in a colorful land with surprises on every other page. Cat instructs the reader on which shape to move and various pop-ups come out of the page to increase the fun and adventure.
This board book is a bit tricky to read. The fact of its being a board book makes you think its for younger readers--and it is--but the target audience (toddlers) are too small to actually figure out the moving parts. A parent could read this to a baby or a preschooler could look at it on their own, but its not great for the kids you might expect. That being said, the illustrations are really fun and colorful and the simple cat adventure is a nice and easy storyline for kids to follow.
