Dinosaurs appear from under sliding panels, which is a more active way into the subject than simply looking at pictures of them.
The mechanisms are placed so that a baby or toddler can work them without much force, and each movement uncovers an image that was hidden underneath. Bright illustration and clear shapes keep the creatures recognisable even at this age, while the sliding action gives hand-eye coordination something concrete to practise. Curiosity is the engine here: children pull because they want to know what is waiting.
On the practical side:
• Sliding panels that reveal hidden dinosaur images beneath them
• Movements light enough for very young children to manage
• Illustrations drawn boldly enough to be read by a beginner's eye
• Thick card pages that keep the mechanisms running after many uses
A straightforward first dinosaur book for babies and toddlers, and a dependable choice from Boipoka.
