Peek-A Who?
Product Description
Colorful pictures and simple rhyming texts help children guess what’s peeking through the die-cut windows in these two fun board books. The anticipation of what’s hiding on the next page and the bright, engaging illustrations will keep youngsters guessing and giggling all the way to the suprise endings.Amazon.com Review
Nina Laden’s illustrations in this simple, rhyming board book are truly magical. The format is straightforward: on alternating two-page spreads, the words “Peek a” are repeated, opposite an illustrated page with a die-cut hole, behind which lurks a cow (“MOO!”), a green ghost (“BOO!”), and a mirror (you guessed it, “YOU!”). The youngest readers will delight in trying to guess who–or what–is peeking through the window, and can easily grip the baby-fist-size holes to turn the pages for the answers. The picture of the “ZOO!” is fabulous. Through the hole, all that can be seen is a wild pattern of colors, stripes, and spots. Turn the page, and find a wild kingdom of animals, one in front of the other: peacock, zebra, penguin, cheetah, elephant, and more. Ready for more peekaboo fun? Try Nina Laden’s Ready, Set, Go! .

I ordered this book from Amazon because I trusted the reviews. However, I won’t give this book to my 1-year-old granddaughter because the author included a ghost in the content. No child this age needs to be hearing about ghosts. It only opens a door for discussion of this subject at an age when the child can’t possibly understand even the best explanation… not to mention all the weird explanations that might be given.

I have bought this so called board book after reading the reviews. And I have found out that a video review would have helped a lot.
Our 5 month old boy did not find the book attractive at all. And the pages are so hard and thick that it might be harmful for your baby if you let him/her play with it alone. May be it is more suitable for a toddler.
I also did not like the fact that there are not many pages to skip to. If your baby does not like one of the pages, there are not many to choose from.

I expected this book to be much better, especially after reading the reviews. But I’m really not impressed at all. Just not a very creative attempt at rhyming. Doesn’t really make sense – the rhyming is all “oo” sounds but really the context seems off. And even the owl on the first flap falls flat. The ghost doesn’t make sense either. It’s a strange combination of being too simple (with basic rhymes) and too complex (really young kids are going to have a hard time grasping “zoo” “boo” ghosts, etc.). If you want a good rhyming and flap book, I’d go with some of the ones from DK Publishing or Baby Enstein’s Mirror Me book.

Our 7 month old daughter enjoys flipping pages faster than I can read the stories of some books, but this one is perfect! She loves the colors and the pictures, and it’s fun to read. Highly recommended.

This is a great book for kids. It has a wonderful visual appeal and turns a reading session into a game. My son loves this book, especially the end. It is one of the best gifts we have received.
