Editorial Review

“Through the double pleasures of a rhymed riddle and a hidden-picture clue, children learn about half a dozen animals who begin life inside an egg shell. . . The full-bleed collages, crafted of painted and textured papers, can be enjoyed by individuals and small groups, and the information is right-sized for squirmy audiences with limited attention spans. . . This is a first choice for kindergarten classrooms or for the bookshelf of any child who appreciates nestling penguin chicks, snapping alligators, or parachuting spiderlings.”
