From the photographer of the bestselling I Spy books and creator of the Can You See What I See? series is a new rhyming, search-and-find reader series--especially for the newest reader! Readers can use the picture clues to search for dozens of hidden trinkets and toys!
This book builds confidence in new readers and provides hours of fun as well!
Looking at a picture and finding the images that are listed and depicted on the opposite page will sharpen reading and observation skills for young children. The pictures, which focus on nature, are made up of a combination of realistic objects and plastic toys in a variety of settings. There is a beach scene, a forest with tall trees, an underwater reef and what appears to be prehistoric Earth when dinosaurs roamed. Sometimes the objects are easy to spot and others are either part of several in a scene but in different poses or hidden by shadows. Trying to find the standing elephants and the frog will take more than a quick glance. Once kids have mastered Wick's early readers, they may be ready for his more advanced books and even for a try at Where's Waldo? Reviewer: Marilyn Courtot
