MY TIDBITS

Short and sweet, this little board book is sure to bring some smiles to the youngest reading audience and even a giggle or two.

This is a very short book and perfect for the intended audience. The illustrations are simple, bright, and bold. The dinosaurs are easy to identify and these are placed in simple surroundings. Each page holds a dinosaur, which is partially or completely hidden until a little flap is pulled or a lever is moved. Then, the smiling dino comes out. 

There's a very short text on each page with only two words, the first always peekaboo. The second works with things such as small, tall, and the like. These also form a cute, simple rhyme, which adds even more reading fun.

It's an adorable book for dinosaur fans and for those young readers, who like moving something to discover a surprise underneath. 

And here they are...
