Synopsis:
Who's hiding? Look carefully! Is it dog, tiger, hippo, zebra, bear, reindeer, kangaroo, lion, rabbit, giraffe, monkey, bull, rhino, pig, sheep, hen, elephant, or cat? Can you tell? Look again...18 fun-loving animals can be found on each question-posing page, sending readers into an up-close, attention-to-detail discovery.
This book is fantastic to read aloud, especially when you get to the final two pages: Who's eyes? Children learn the names of animals, to recognise expressions, colours, and how to count. “It is so simple, and so clever,” says Gecko Press publisher Julia Marshall.
This simple picture book is a great opportunity for a parent or caregiver to work with a young child. Guess who is who on each spread that features the same eighteen colourful, cartoony animals in the same places. It's a memory game and a thinking game. Find the animal that is hiding (blending into the coloured background) or pick out the one who is angry or sleeping. Some of the answers aren't as obvious—the reader needs to look closely to see whose eyes are closed.
Who's Hiding is a challenging test of memory and observation perfect for your preschoolers - a mental workout disguised as fun. By the end of the book, young readers will have used their ability to observe and remember in order to answer questions about animals, colours, facial expressions and moods, and appearances...an energetic and engaging choice that teaches through entertainment.
