Description

In these board books, every page is bursting with life-and tons to discover! Wimmelbooks are virtually instruction-free, inviting kids to make their own way through the busy Wimmelworld they encounter, and to craft their own stories. Children as young as age 2 have a blast pointing out recognizable things-a blue tricycle, a hungry dog, a piggyback ride-while older kids can follow the star characters from page to page, telling their stories along the way.

My Little Wimmelbook-A Day at the Zoo invites young readers to follow characters through the Wimmelzoo, from the wildcat enclosure to the aviary to the monkey house and more. It's the same animal-filled day of fun, made just the right size for kids to bring on their own excursions.

Reviews

The large board books in the My Big Wimmelbook series are full of lively, crowded tableaux of people and animals going about their business in different settings. [Wimmelbooks] abound with witty details to draw in younger children . . . and older toddlers will want to follow the wordless interactions that spill from one page to the next in these eventful pictures.
