Customer Reviews

Short, sweet and adorable

This darling board book features pictures of animals (primarily from the Midwest) blending into their surroundings -- a white-footed mouse, a fawn, a tree frog, turtles, a katydid, etc. It's perfect for toddlers -- my almost-2-year-old loves the pictures, and I love that he's learning about some of the animals that live near us. (Lions and tigers et al. are great, but it's wonderful for him to learn about the animals in his own back yard, too.) It's also an extremely sturdy little book. I have just one tiny complaint. The tree frog and the walking stick are almost TOO hard to see for little ones; the tree frog in particular. Granted, the book IS called "Find My Friends," which implies that you'll have to look a bit to find them, but considering the very young audience, I think those two photos could be a bit easier to find.

This book is wonderful My grandchildren love it, and take it out time after time. Money well spent.

Find My Friends

Great book. Super photos of Midwest wild animals. Not too big to keep toddlers' attention. Good heavy cardboard pages for toddlers.

Wonderful "real" pictures of the animals for a baby to see and learn.

A hard board-type book for babies, this one has simply beautiful photographs rather than stylized or drawn cartoon type pictures. It is short, so the baby will not get tired of looking at it. There are a variety of animals, the same photos of which will appear in the longer book for older children, Lost In the Woods. I purchased one for the 8 month old granddaughter, the other for her sister, age 3 1/2. I suspect I will introduce them first to the winter books from these same authors, and save these for a spring visit.
