Ferri, F. (2006). Peek-a-boo jungle. Hauppauge, NY: Barrons Educational Series, Inc. ISBN: 0-7641-5940-2
Interest Level: Ages 3 and under
Genre: Pop-Up/Flip Book
Subjects/Themes: Jungle Animals, Peek-a-boo game,
Plot: The reader plays peek-a-boo with different jungle animals. The book repeats the phrase "Peek-a-boo! Who is hiding?" on each page. The reader can then flip the arms down of each animal to find out who is hiding. The reader meets different jungle animals from an elephant to a zebra to a giraffe. The name of each animal is written on the animal's chest after flipping the arms down. With a mirror hidden on the last page, we learn that the last animal hiding is you!
Personal Thoughts: Nothing is more entertaining to a young child then a game of peek-a-boo. Add to that the fun on flip book pages and the fun only increases. The animals are each drawn with happy smiling faces. The construction of the book is also of the highest quality. The flip pages all align correctly and mesh well with the drawing on the page beneath. The mirror included at the end of the book is a cute touch that children will enjoy. A nice simple and fun way to introduce different jungle animals to a small child.
Other Books by the Author: Peek-a-boo (2005); Peek-a-boo Pets (2009);
