Hide And Seek, In The Jungle

A colourful and fun new series that introduces animals and habitats to young children. There’s plenty to spot while looking to see what’s hiding in the jungle. Peep-hole clues help the reader think of the answer before folding out the large flaps to see a wonderfully colourful scene.

 

Peer into the jungle to discover what’s behind the tall grass, dangling from a tree, sitting amongst the leaves and lurking in the river. Three questions on each animal carefully guide the reader to seek the identity of the animal hiding in the jungle. Die-cut features on the flaps reveal further clues of furrystripes, large teeth, beaks and tails.

Booklist

Perfectly placed peekaboo cutouts display sharp teeth here, a tuft of fur there; and page-sized flaps open to reveal a detailed illustration of each animal. The final spread features photos and facts about other rain-forest animals and provides a worthy introduction to this diverse part of the world.
