Daisy the duckling and her little brother, Pip, decide to play hide-and-seek on the farm and around the pond. Daisy looks all over - in the henhouse (cluck, cluck), in the sheep's pen (baa, baa), in the pigsty (wee, wee), in the flowers (buzz, buzz), on the pond (ribbit, ribbit) - before she finds Pip in the best place possible: under Mama's wing. Jane Simmons's bold, striking palette and warm illustrations will appeal to all readers who know and love this irrepressible little duck with big feet.

Amazon.com Review
Daisy the duckling and her even duckling-er little brother, Pip, are playing hide-and-seek in this engaging lift-the-flap book. Pip scurries off, and Daisy begins to search high and low. Is he in the henhouse? Open the door and find out. "Cluck! Cluck!" cackles the chicken. Is he in the pigsty? "Wee! Wee! No, Pip's not here," squeak the piglets. Is he in the flowers? "Buzz! Buzz! No, Pip's not here," drones the bee. Is he with Mama Duck? That might just be the best guess of all. Youngsters who fell in love with Daisy in Come Along, Daisy!, Daisy and the Egg, Daisy's Day Out, and Jane Simmons's other ducky titles, will gladly join in the play with their favorite yellow duckling and her sweet sibling. Simmons's lush, spring colors invite the reader to linger over each illustration, examining the darker intricacies within the flowers and the swirling colors of the pond and lily pads. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter
From Publishers Weekly
The indefatigable duck is back in Daisy's Hide-and-Seek by Jane Simmons, this time looking for Pip. Youngsters can join Daisy in her search by pulling flaps that open the door to the chicken coop or by peeling back the petals of a poppy. The paintings are as luxurious as ever.

This review is from: Daisy's Hide and Seek : A Lift the Flap Book (Paperback)
These books are a pleasure to read and to look at !This series of books are the favourite with my 9 month old daughter and me ! We have been enjoying these books for about four months now. I even recite them to my little girl when we are out walking to squeals of delight. I have borrowed a lot of books from the library, so you could say I have done a lot of "road testing". I find the Daisy series to be in a different league to everything else. The illustrations in the Daisy series are delightful and the words are like poetry.
