FlAppy,Waggy,Wiggly Review

Nice book of riddles for what animals lie behind and are hidden on the page. The end is cute.

So good, I'm buying a second copy

My daughter loved this book a little too much when she was a toddler, and some pages got ripped (the last ones beyond repair). Now that my son wants to read it too, I plan to replace it. Both kids can enjoy it, on different levels. I also tried Ms. Leslie's book, "Do Crocodiles Moo?" after this one was such a success. That one has been a hit in our family too (and as a gift). As with "Flappy...," younger readers will enjoy the bright pictures and flaps, and slightly older (pre-schoolers) will have fun saying the answers.

Good variety of animals. Bright, vivid colors. Fun riddles.

Flappy Waggly Wiggly is an animal picture book with a twist--it has riddles.Each pair of pages (left & right) show a bright, vivid drawing of an animal. But instead of showing the full animal, the body is hidden and only part of the head and tail are visible.Animals shown:- Dog- Crocodile- Elephant- Duck- Pig- Snake- Tiger- BoyEach page has a riddle that describes the animal. The child can then guess what the animal is. By turning a small flap, the full animal is revealed. It's an interesting twist and sure capture more interest from your child.Each page also has the animal name spelled out so you can introduce the alphabet and spelling to your kids.We just got this for our 2yr old daughter. She loves flap books so the flap on this one is interesting to her. She also loves really bright colors so this book scores again.Appropriate Age Group---------------------The basic concepts covered in this book make it ideal for toddlers who already have some grasp of words like animal names and colors. But at this age, the riddles may be too complicated for them. Older kids will enjoy the riddles more and the spelling of animal names.

My two year old loves this book

My two year old just loves this book. I have to read it over and over to him. It's a very simple concept but he particularly likes flapping the pages over and back to see what's hiding. It's a good book to read to more than one child too.

We checked this out from the library and are adding it to our collection! My son loves telling you the animals the pages describe. The pictures are bright and bold.

This is a great book. Our local library read it at a young toddler library hour and the kids all loved it. The pictures are bright and colorful with easy to read words. The author was very creative in compiling the book with pages that are interesting to turn, especially for kids. Our son loves all the animals featured in the book. It's a hit!
