How do They Do that?

This book is adorable! The black & white drawings actually change to colors right before your eyes (when you pull the flap). It took us (the parents) a while to figure out how they do it. The kids should be "duped" for a long time to come. I can't believe how inexpensive this great book is considering how nicely made it is. It would make a wonderful gift for a creative kid, especially if you paired it with some paints of her/his own.

Magic art class

This has been a wonderful book for my 2 year old. We started reading it when she was 18 months and now she laughs so loud when she sees the different color animals and can tell me the colors.

Magical Book Teaches Creativity

This short board book is truly magical - it will have parents looking to see "how did they do that??" as you pull out tabs that magically change a black & white children's drawing to vivid color. The storyline is simple and not very memorable, but the illustrations are wonderful and the story can help inspire children to think "out of the box". If they want to draw an orange pig, go ahead! The girl in the story is attending art class and chooses to paint her subjects whatever color she feels like. The only drawback is the same as with most pull out tabs - they can get worn and difficult to use with repeated use. And these will get used! My 3 year old loves it.
