Review Detail

Illusions in Art used negative and positive space (terminology explained in the last pages) to create illusions of animals. The text gave the directions needed to help see the second image. The answer was at the bottom of the page so you are never left wondering if you were correct. I was impressed with the rhyme on each page that helped you to figure out what the illusionary animal would be. I found the text and illustrations to work together in a clever way that will make a child very proud to figure out the hidden image. This board book is geared for babies to age 3 years but the level of flexible thinking needed may be better suited for ages 3-5 years.
