Readers are asked where each animal is hiding and can lift the felt flap on the opposite page to see its location.

For infants and toddlers, try this lift-the-flap title - bright, blocky illustrations and simple, repetitive text appeal to the littlest readers, and the best part is the flaps are made of felt so little hands can't rip and destroy them! There are several other similar books in this series as well - Where is the Penguin, Where is the Unicorn, Where is the Cat, etc etc. -Anne W
