Animal Hide and Seek

 By Dahlov Ipcar

This is another excellent Ipcar book.  The text is a little advanced.  We're just starting to read it properly.  As a picture book, though, it's great for kids under 3.

 This is a search and find book in green, orange and brown.  The animals are native to Maine, but we live in a similar climate and have most of the same animals living in our backyard.  The colours are dull, but accurate for the species presented as well as their habitat.

We all love this book.  My daughter gets so excited finding the animals.  Sure, lions and tigers and elephants are cool, but we see ducks and deer in our back yard all the time, so it's especially exciting to read a book about them.
