This board
book features a mirror on each two page spread so that the young
reader will see his or her own face looking back from the face of
the featured animal.
"Welcome
to China. Let's play, 'Guess who!' I am chewing on a piece of bamboo.
Guess who I am!"
Now, look
at the adjacent page and there's the answer. "I'm a PANDA -
just like you!" And, there's a big panda face with a mirror
embedded in it so the child's faced is reflected back.
Other featured
animals include a penguin, monkey, elephant, lion, clown fish and
bear. The big, bold illustrations are very colorful while the text,
although limited, tells something about where each creature lives
and what a few of its characteristics are.
This engaging
board book should captivate toddlers and help them identify some
key animals.
