Review Detail

LITTLE BEAR, WHERE ARE YOU? is a cute lift-the-flap board book. The book features a question looking for different animals, who then say that they are there to ask the question of "where are you?" back at the readers. By lifting the flap, children find a mirror to show them where they are.

What I loved: This is a simple but cute concept that will delight older infants who are getting into mirrors. The book also has a QR code that puts it into a recognizable tune, making it possible for parents to sing it if they so choose. The text is repetitive, which works well for the youngest of readers who will appreciate the predictability that allows them to process the story easily. The flaps and mirrors add to the fun and engage little ones with the book.

The font is clear, large, and easy to read, potentially helping with early word recognition for older board book readers. The illustrations are simple, with colored backgrounds and only the animal that they are looking to find. This will work very well for the littlest children.

Final verdict: LITTLE BEAR, WHERE ARE YOU? is a charming lift-the-flap board book that combines simple text with mirrors for plenty of fun.
