Play hide-and-seek with Lucy Cousins’s Little Fish as the effervescent little guy finds clever cover beneath the flaps.
Is that Little Fish hiding behind the yellow coral? No, it’s stripy fish! How about inside the shell? That’s shelly fish, of course! Open up the treasure chest (hi, crab!) and peek behind the red coral (so that’s where curly whirly and twisty twirly went off to!). Children will leave no oyster shell uncracked and no clump of seaweed unexplored in their search for this bright and sprightly new friend from the creator of Maisy.
A board book should be brief to match a toddler's attention span, have humor that a young child can appreciate, and provide reasons for caregiver and child to linger over each page. Cousins, best known for the popular Maisy stories, scores on all counts here...Where is Little Fish? He should be on shelves serving young children everywhere. —Kirkus Reviews
