Review Detail

HEY! LOOK AT YOU! is a delightful and interactive board book. The book is addressed to the reader with an animal on each page facing a mirror and suggesting something for the reader to say (such as moo or shouting QUACK!). There is also a flap that can be lifted to show a mirror for a small peekaboo!

What I loved: Boynton really speaks to toddlers, and this book is no different - this is simple, interactive, and pure fun! Mirrors on every page spread allow children to see themselves and say the silly animal sounds while considering their faces and their tones of voice. The peekaboo flap is a particular favorite at our house with an animal wondering where they went, with the flap revealing a mirror to "find" them. These simple, interactive pages work so well for young toddlers who will love seeing themselves and being silly along with the story.

What left me wanting more: As a very small thing, the flap was very easy to rip off for rougher readers as it is only cardstock thickness, though the book can still be enjoyed without it.

Final verdict: HEY! LOOK AT YOU! is a delightful, interactive board book that is sure to charm young toddlers.
