Review Quotes
Toddler-K-Trukhan can be counted upon to deliver a search-and-find that toddlers will love and even kindergartners will sit still for. Here, a brightly painted little lion on the cover seems to be the one asking, "Little giraffe, Little giraffe, where are you?/ Here I am! Here I am!/ Where are you?" says a giraffe with a blue kerchief. Will children fold down the flap to reveal the mirror to find that they are the ones asking the animals questions and being found? A hippo, a zebra, and that lion finish the game before baby is asked, "where are you?"
VERDICT A child-pleaser, worth repeat readings, as baby after baby will want to see a familiar face behind the animal's own smiling one.
Shoot. Why settle for just one mirror in the back of a book when you can indulge in FIVE big, beautiful mirrors, all hidden under flap, instead? A word of warning to the wise. Pay attention to how often you see the name Ekaterina Trukhan in my inclusions today. Somehow she became the go to person when you need a board book illustrator. You'll see! In this case, gentle rhymes ask each little animal things like, "Little pig, Little pig, where are you?" to be responded with "Here I am! Here I am! Where are you?" You then pull down the face of the animal in question (which sounds more dire than it actually is) and voila! A mirror! I can't pretend to understand the rudimentary price points of including mirrors in board books, but if it's cheap then I don't know why this hasn't really been done before. Give us faces! Faces galore!--Betsy Bird, A Fuse #8 Production
