Bright Illustrations, Wonderful Message!

Both of my children love this book. I think the pull tabs and moving parts are very clever and well done. Some are a little fragile, but we have had this book for six years and it really hasn't been a problem. My favorite thing about the book is that some page spreads show Roxie, the fox, and Bo, the rabbit, liking different foods, wearing different accessories, making different discoveries, and enjoying different hobbies. In between each page of differences is a page that shows how the two friends use their differences to work or play together. Great point to make to children. Friends can like different things and celebrate their differences and still enjoy doing things together. Friends don't have to be just alike! What a super idea!

He loves it!

Our baby LOVES Roxie and Bo. This is an adorable story which captivates him again and again. When we try to read other stories to him, he closes the book and grabs for Roxie and Bo. He never moves when we read it to him; he sits quietly and listens intently. It's amazing!

Baby's favorite book!

This is our 4 month old's favorite book. She instantly smiles when she sees the cover. The illustrations are simple enough for her to focus on and the colors are vibrant. The pop ups are facinating and make for a varied presentation that keeps interest. The story is simple allowing for reader embelishment and each page builds upon the next.
