Reviews
"Just when you thought it couldn't be done, there's a new twist--ahem, fold--on a classic guessing game! ...eye-catching triangular shape ...Caregivers will flip over the innovative flaps, warm animal art, and opportunities to interact with little listeners." --kirkusreviews.com
"Innovative... Mroziewicz packs uncommon exuberance, expressiveness, and design into a little triangular package." --Publishers Weekly
"This triangular board book is engagingly designed to fit in little hands. Each page turn offers a diamond-shaped double-page spread that asks youngsters to guess an animal based on the sound it makes. "Who says meow?" queries a cheerful blue spread. And here's where it gets fun: the answer is found by unfolding the pages, transforming the spread into a whiskered cat's face, with perky triangle ears. The pattern repeats to reveal 11 vividly painted animals by book's end, including a turkey, snake, pig, sheep, and peacock. Sturdily constructed, this clever book will withstand grabbing and multiple reading sessions." --Julia Smith, Booklist
