Reading As Playing / Playing as Reading!

What makes this book special are the holes cut in each page where you (or your child) can use fingers to be a wiggly worm, the tail of a sheep, front legs of a prancing horse, the back leg of a dog scratching its ear, and so on. Without this added feature, this book would be a nice enough board book, with good illustrations and enough durability to survive many readings. But WITH the holes, this book nicely blurs the line between reading and play!
