Peek-a-Wonderful!

If you're looking for a perfect 'getting ready for bed' story, this is it. Clever rhymes your toddler will soon be repeating. Lots of flaps to lift with surprises hidden beneath. On the last page, your child can peek behind the bedroom curtains and see the moon, then--surprise--there's hidden flap behind the moon. (I won't spoil the surprise......) Very charming!

Small children will like memorizing the flaps and confirming that their world is reliable.
